Weight Training + Elliptical

Today's workout:

Warmup, w/45lb barbell, 3 sets of 5
Overhead Barbell Squats
Barbell Squats
Good Mornings
Alternating Lunges
Deadlift
Romanian Deadlift

Workout
Triceps Kickbacks, 3x20x(2x15lbs)
Bench Dips, 3x20
Dumbbell Curls, 3x20x(2x15lbs)
Incline Curls, 3x20x(2x15lbs)

25 minutes, 155 calories, 109/135

But that's not much time, and I still had time left. So I hopped on the elliptical for 34 minutes and burned 320 more calories for 475 total.

  • 12:03:31: OK... the schedule says 8 miles on Thursday (7 tempo miles). I can only fit 6 miles into lunch. There are quite a few options
  • 12:04:15: I'm also scheduled for 13 on Saturday but will be doing 16 by running to breakfast and running back
  • 12:04:39: So... A) Run 6 tempo miles Thursday, throw the other 2 out the window, because I'm running 16 on Saturday
  • 12:05:32: B) Run 5 or 6 casual miles on Thurs, then 7 tempo miles in the evening
  • 12:06:09: C) Run 5 or 6 casual miles on Thurs, but run 7 out of th 13 on Saturday at tempo pace
