A Nor'Easter? Really?

Here we go again. More. Snow. And this time, maybe over a foot. They are calling for 9-16 inches. This area cannot catch a break. HOPEFULLY the temperature will rise just enough to change it to rain. But, I doubt that's going to happen. This area's going to be an absolute mess. I probably won't see Zim all of Thursday. Our boss is in Florida, and is supposed to fly back Thurday. The snow is supposed to start 1am Thursday morning. I think his flight's going to be cancelled. Yup, gonna be a mess. It sure is winter.

Workouts! Monday, was a basement upper body workout. The garage was a little too cold. Here goes:
 
5 minute warm-up

Shoulder press
In & out biceps
Behind the head medicine ball press (10lb)
Push-ups

Upright row
In & out hammers
Dips (20,10)
Push-ups

Shoulder fly
Static arm curl
Tricep kickback 
Push-ups

Shoulder shrug
Standing band row
Standing band tricep pull-down
Push-ups

REPEAT

1 round shadow boxing, 1 round heavy bag

Cool down 

Reps: 10, 8. Weights used were 15lbs. Push-ups were reps of 3, 2.

Tuesday: A gym day. Since I'm doubting I'll be getting to the gym until maybe the end of the week, I decided to go this late morning for a leg workout. Here goes:

1/4 mile warm-up jog

Hip abductor machine (110,125,140)
Hip adductor machine (100, 120, 130)
Weight calf raise machine (120,140,160)
Leg extension machine (70,80,95)
Leg flexion machine (70,80,95)
Body squats 
Lunges
Elbow to knee

(The reps are of 10, 8, 5)

Finish with 20 minutes on the elliptical.

Cool down
