Comments: I just couldn't find a good time to work out last week, and it didn't help that the gym was closed. But I'm back, it's open, and still working hard! I have to build up running; I think I'm a smidge rusty. The time might not be accurate, though; my treadmill was giving me errors and even stopped once. Also, I only did the running second because people were occupying the treadmillls when I first arrived.

Saturday, 6/8/13
Saturday, 6/8/13, 8:45 AM - 9:45 AM
My mom and I participated in this boot camp workout at a park with a group of about fifteen. We jogged up and down hills, did sprints at the top of the hill, did jumping jacks and high kicks when we weren't running, and other similar things for an hour straight. I was dripping sweat by the end of it, but it was a great workout! I might definitely do this again.

1. Cardio: Treadmill (9.25 minutes)
Run 0.75 miles (5.0 mph)
2. Strength: Weights and Machines (25 minutes)
3 sets of 10 bicep curls with 10 lb. dumbbells
1 set of 8 upper bicep curls with 10 lb. dumbbells
1 set of 4 upper bicep curls with 10 lb. dumbbells
1 set of leg extensions with 85 lb. on quad machine
1 set of 4 leg extensions on 85 lb. on quad machine

Comments: Since I'm out of school for the summer, I no longer have direct access to my gym's amazing facilities. Instead, I work out at my mom's job, which has less equipment. Once I get more comfortable, I might add more exercises.
Also, I start my job next week, which makes working out even more difficult to schedule. But do not fear; I will still work out twice a week most weeks if I can help it.
Friday, 5/31/13
I spent most of the day out. In the morning, I walked around Downtown for about an hour. Later, I went to the mall with a friend, which was another decent hour of walking. That has to count as something!

Camp (5/18/13 - 5/24/13)
Monday, 5/20/13
I walked with a friend up a fairly steep trail and back down for about 25 minutes. Plus, it was hot. That had to contribute to extra exercise!
I also played in the sand volleyball tournament that day.
2:30 PM - 2:40 PM
1. Strength: Weights
3 sets of 10 bicep curls with 10 lb.
1 set of 10 upper bicep curls with 10 lb.
1 set of 10 behind-the-back curls with 10 lb.
2 sets of 30 crunches
1 set of 20 side crunches (left/right)
1 set of 15 crunches
1 set of 10 bicep curls with 10 lb.
1 set of 5 bbicep curls with 10 lb.
Cool Down: I stretched outside in the heat after using my leader's weights. Surprisingly, the exercise felt pretty good, despite the heavier weights. I wish I could work out more, but eh. This will do.
