Drivel:  I had my best day in months today.  I was at the gym by 7am.  I just finished my day at the gym at 8pm.  I had my normal day in between.  The best thing about it is that I pushed my body to its limits tonight.  I pushed it right to the edge where you start to feel like your body is going to go into convulsions and backed off.  Backing off exactly at the right time is the point at which your endorphin release is at its highest in the brain.  It is the best natural high.  It can last for four to six hours for me some times.  I used to be a tri-athlete.  I am tired of saying "I used to be ..." this or that.  "I am going to be ..." again.

My workout consisted of 30 minutes on the recumbent stationary bike and four set of 25 situps in the morning.  My evening workout consistented of four sets of barbell bench press (185lbs and 12 reps; 195lbs and 10 reps; 205lbs and 8 reps; 205lbs and 6 reps), three sets of flat bench dumbbell flyes (50lbs and 8 reps each), two sets of incline dumbbell flyes (40lbs and 10 reps each), three sets of machine tricep extensions (90lbs and 12 reps, 95lbs and 10 reps, 100lbs and 8 reps), three sets of cable pushdowns (120lbs and 8 reps each), and, finally, a hour of spinning.  Tomorrow is a leg day, which I hate but endure.  I use GymAmerica to help me keep track of my workouts and workout history.  8:10:43 PM   comments ()
