Beginning of a Long Day

 I headed out in good season. I did the 2 x Woodlot with 3 Woodlot Hills each Loop for 6.34 m, the fab 40,  1weighted bench presses , 2 x GP bench presses, and 1 set of hex bar deadlifts. It’s nice to have Charlotte back home. My arthritic toe was sore at work today. Doing better now. Another short entry. Just recording my workout.

Little Improvements

I was a little concerned about soreness and fatigue. I switched up my insoles and sneakers and it is helping. This morning I did the Longwood loop for 6.49 miles, the fab 40, and 3 x GP curls/presses. I may do a set of core trainer presses/rows and a set of goblet squats when I get home. A lot of interruptions shortened the length of this entry. I look forward to the return of Char.

Better Day

  I was able to switch out my foot supports back to my power step insoles.  I prayed for wisdom and the Lord helped me. I believe that my Fulton insoles are too thick in the ball of my foot. My powerstep insoles worked very well today. I am also wearing my regular sneakers with heal pads that I had in another set of shoes. Fortunately, things fell into place without having to make more immediate purchases. I started doing the Longwood Loop , but Charlotte called me and said that she might need me to watch her mother as the nurse hadn’t shown up on time. I started back towards home, but I received a call that the nurse had showed up. I went down Woodlot and headed back up Ridge Toad for 7.01 miles, I did the fab 40, 3 x GP bench presses and most likely 1 x weighted bench presses. I am a bit tired and am fighting off some throat congestion. Have a blessed day friends!

Saturday Slog

 I woke up a bit earlier than I figured, but I don’t sleep as well without Charlotte next to me. I took my meds, ate breakfast, and slowly made my way out to go for my walk. I did the Woodlot plus 7 x Woodlot hill and the Ridge loop with 3 x Ryan Avenue for 7.58 miles, I did 3 x Curls/Presses with GP. I may do more work later.Looking forward to seeing Charlotte tonight! Have a blast!

Early Wake Up

 I have been waking up earlier than usual. It’s the type of earlier that when I wake up, I’m not exactly fresh as a daisy. I woke up the second day alone, because Charlotte is taking care of her mother while her father is away on vacation. I did 2 x Woodlot with each lap doing 3 x Woodlot Hill for 6.49 miles, the fabulous 40, 3 x GP bench presses, and one set of hex bar deadlifts. I may attempt a set of weighted bench presses later. I also hope to mow the lawn. I am not 100%, but I am okay. This is GoBurger day. Yay! Blessed!

Late but Doing Fine

  I have been just a bit slow this week due to fatigue. Thankfully, I am getting stuff done— I just can’t seem to get it done quickly. This morning I did the Longwood Loop doing 6.45 miles, the fabulous 40, and I did 3 x GP curls/presses. I may do a set of core trainer presses and a set of goblet squats. I will see how I feel. There was an accident today on the way to work that slowed me down. I was a bit late, but thankfully I haven’t had many of those days. In Jesus there is salvation and hope!

Easy Does It

 I have hit the tired section of the school year. Even though I rest I don’t get rested and I wake up, but I am not as rested. Today I decided to do a bit easier workout doing 2 x Woodlot, doing the Woodlot Hill a total of 5 times for 6.33 miles, did the fabulous 40, and 3 x GP bench pro. I may do a set of weighted bench presses and a hex bar deadlift, or not. I will see how my energy is at the end of the day. I have Bible study tonight. I have enough energy for everything, but not always the enthusiasm. Have a blessed day!
