Thursday, February 2:<\/strong> I started the month with 45 minutes on a cross-trainer, a piece of equipment I haven’t used in I think over three years. A slight calf strain from the treadmill and too much running prompted the switch to the easier-on-the-joints cross-trainer. That was preceded by a pretty intense back, traps, lats, and biceps workout:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Friday, February 3:<\/strong> An early morning core (abs, sides, and lower back) workout. And I walked to the gym and then home again after work if that counts as exercise.<\/p>\n

Saturday, February 4:<\/strong> On the cross-trainer again for a gruelling 50-minute workout followed by a few sets of legs exercises:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Monday, February 6:<\/strong> Another cross-trainer session, this one 5 minutes longer than Saturday’s workout. Strangely the time passed much more quickly. That was immediately followed by a chest. shoulders, and triceps workout:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tuesday, February 7:<\/strong> A rare mid-week swim, 1.4 km or 56 laps of the too-short 25 meter pool:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Thursday, February 9:<\/strong> Back on the cross-trainer after work for a 50 minute workout at a faster pace than my previous three efforts:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Friday, February 10:<\/strong> A short weights session after work: back, biceps, traps, lats, and forearms.<\/p>\n

Saturday, February 11:<\/strong> A 55-minute cross-trainer session followed by a legs and core workout. 90 minutes all up!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sunday, February 12:<\/strong> A 1.3 kilometre swim the same day of the season 2.5 The Walking Dead premier:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Monday, February 13:<\/strong> Another cross-trainer session, this one clocked in at 50 minutes:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tuesday, February 14:<\/strong> A shortish chest, shoulders, and triceps workout with a few sets of sits to finish things off.<\/p>\n

Wednesday, February 15:<\/strong> An exhausting 55-minute treadmill session followed by a legs workout! I hope that was enough to burn off the quarter-pounder set I was forced to eat at work. Surely it was?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Friday, February 17:<\/strong> A shortish back, biceps, traps, sides, lower back, and forearms workout. And I may have strained my right lat again slightly swimming last week. Oops.<\/p>\n

Wednesday, February 22:<\/strong> Back exercising after a rare break: 55 minutes on the cross-trainer followed by a chest, shoulder,s and triceps workout:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Thursday<\/b>, February 23:<\/strong> Weight after work: back, biceps, forearms, lats, traps, abs, sides, and lower back.<\/p>\n

Friday, February 24:<\/strong> 50 minutes on my favourite cross-trainer after work:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Saturday, February 25:<\/strong> I mixed things up a little today starting with calves, thighs, and hamstrings before moving onto chest, shoulders, and triceps. And then for the first time in almost a month I jumped on the treadmill to see how my niggling calf injury was progressing and it felt 100%^^<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Monday, February 27:<\/strong> A short weights session after work (back, traps, lats, biceps, sides, and forearms)<\/p>\n

Tuesday, February 28:<\/strong> A record-breaking 60 minutes (15 km) on my favorite cross-trainer:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Wednesday, February 29:<\/strong> I ended the month with a solid chest, shoulders, and triceps workout.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
