My form wasn't great on some of the 40's, but I really wanted to work my biceps. Even so, they aren't reall sore. On my vacation which starts tomorrow I'll try to do some chin ups/pull ups. |

Re: MaxC\'s Journal
I got back from vacation last night. I'll catch up without too much detail now.
7/30--Clayton, NM--1 hour hiking and scrambling over rocks 7/31--SE CO--abs, 1 hour hiking and scrambling 8/1--Alamosa, CO--swimming with the kids, plus 10 minutes of laps 8/2--Alamosa, CO--shoulders and back, climbed the sand dunes, about 800 vertical feet. Felt the elevation while doing the shoulders and back and really felt it at the sdand dunes, but no headaches or nausea. 8/4--Durango, CO--bis and tris, 8/5--Ouray, CO--about an hour of hiking 8/6--Ouray, CO--chest--this was a really good workout at the fitness center at the hot springs center in Ouray. A nice facilty with only one other guy workng out. Swam with the kids. 8/8--Lake City, CO--Drank nearly 2 gallons of water, took it easy with a little backpacking in the evening. 8/9--Near Lake City, CO--About 90 minutes of backpacking and hiking. 8/10--Near Lake City, CO--Climbed two 14,000+ foot peaks. Redcloud and Sunshine. About 6 hours of climbing and hiking. I drank about a gallon of water and tea by 10:30AM. This is the first time I experienced virtually no altitude sickness at this elevation! This is a real breakthrough for me. I attribute it to drinking lots of water, spending a week acclimating, and popping plenty of aspirin--thanks to you who gave me this advice a few weeks ago. My diet wasn't great on this trip, but today I am starting to eat clean again. I only did 3 weight workouts over the past 2 weeks, but now I'll get back on the 3 a week schedule with 3 cardio workouts a week. |

Re: MaxC\'s Journal
Actually, I like how you are laying the ground work with your back ground, philosophy, and goals. When you get into the regular routine your format will sort itself out, because you will probably cut and paste a your workouts from prior workouts and then just edit. The thing to be careful about is not getting into too much of a routine just for convenience sake.

The triceps are feeling it this morning (feels good!). My biceps are not sore--it is really hard for me to get DOMS on my biceps, perhaps its time for an Austrian Blitz? Tonight is cardio. |

Cardio Bicycled 48 miles at 15.9 mph. I had a slight head wind most of the way, and not much snap in my legs. It was my first ride in 2 weeks, so not too bad I guess. My triceps are sore from Thursday--I'm not sure if I should do my chest tonight or wait. I'll see how I feel tonight. I'm going to cheat for lunch--Quesadillas. Hopefully I burned enough calories this morning to justify it. |

Cardio and abs Bicycled 24 miles @ 17.2mph. I rode after work when the temperature was 102'. The heat was OK, but I only took one water bottle when I really needed two. I did 10 30 second sprints with a minute recovery for the first 7, and then longer recoveries for the final 3. It was a decent ride. Abs Aternate knee ins--90 Knee raised crunches--50 Reverse crunches--50 Knee raise twisting situps--100 Tonight willl be shoulders and back. |
