40 min cross training

i couldnt decide what to do so i did half of both...

20 minutes on the elliptical & 20 minutes strength training.

strength training:

2 sets, 15 reps each on machines, not free weights.

leg press   100lbs *each leg*   (so 30 reps total - 15 reps each leg)

leg extensions   52lbs both legs

leg curls   87lbs both legs

chest press   49lbs

gunna be sore in the morning.  i probably could have gone longer on the elliptical, but i didnt have my headphones and i was too lazy to go to the car and get them.  oh well, i could use the strength training.

i saw my doctor there while i was stretching... it was kinda weird/awkward...   but, hey, at least she knows i'm back at the gym... ;)
