At 11 minutes, it was a shorter run, but I had just completed about 20 minutes of weights (chest, shoulders, and triceps), and after the run I did some weightless squats and leg extensions.

I later returned to the gym for an overdue weights session and a long overdue treadmill session. The break was necessary due to a return of shin splints. The weights portion of my workout consisted of chest, shoulders, triceps, and traps; the cardio was another 3 kilometers in under 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"http:\/\/peterdaley.net\/images\/fitness\/2019\/07\/03.jpg\" width=\"250\" height=\"462\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Thursday, July 18: <\/strong>Last night, the plan was to go the gym in the morning before breakfast.
