Schlumpy
I have to leave work early today to go to the doctor, so I got up an hour earlier (5:30, NOT COOL) and hit the gym for an abbreviated workout; 20 minutes on the elliptical and then I went into the...

Divergent motivations
4 miles today. It was pretty easy this time; I kept up a good pace (set a new 5K record time, even, by a couple minutes) and didn’t have any issues to note. Felt good for a change! It’s funny how some...

Accepting even the parts I don’t like
Tuesday weight lifting, the usual, cranked through it in record time. Since I’m not running I did the leg exercises that I usually skip, the quad and hamstring machines. And then I stretched out all...

Rearrange it
I’ve been working through NRoL4W for a while now, and as I go along I wind up slowly adding, subtracting, modifying and splitting exercises. My latest target is the combined deadlift/bent-over row....
