Back in the swing

Well I finally got back to the gym tonight after my surgery. I had to do a light workout with Erin, but we managed. Hopefully I will be able to do more come the Monday after Thanksgiving when I go back again.

I had trouble sitting so we had to be a bit careful about what I did :)

I started out riding the bike for 10 minutes and then did lunges with 3 pound weights. Those were hard tonight, I could tell that it had been a while.

Then we went to do a circuit. I did back lat pull downs, incline press, bicep curls, triceps, and wall ball squats. Repeat. Then we did lateral lifts, sumo squats, low rows, flies, biceps, and triceps. Repeat. Then we did a couple of ab exercises. One that mainly worked the obliques.

Erin was pleased that I made it through. I felt so weak in that I could not pick up my own weights and Erin had to hand them to me. I do know that I will get stronger and more able to do these things again. I just have to be patient. Erin was continually teasing me about not doing my part.

On a lighter note, Trent asked me if I had read this month's newsletter. I told him that yes, I had, and I was happy to announce that it was the first one without any spelling errors :) He was pretty happy about that--big smile on his face :)

Hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving!!! More the week after the holiday :)
