Ok, so it's Sunday and there was no excuse for us not to get back into the routine of going to the YMCA. We were so good in July of going every Sunday, then kind of fell off the wagon.
Also, this is the only place that has the good treadmills that have an interval mode setting. Therefore I figured I'd better take advantage as it has been a while since I've done intervals. Did my mile with 5.9 jog pace & 8.2 run pace for the intervals. Did three 40-second intervals at the faster pace, about every two minutes in the run. Ended up the mile in about 9:20-9:25 minute pace.
Then did 20 minutes on the bike so I could read a bit, but also do some different leg exercises. Did a random routine at level 3.
Ended the workout with 6 weight machines. Did 3 sets of 12 on each of the machines: upper body--sitting bench, front press, lat pull-down; and lower body--adductor, abductor, and sitting leg press. Finished, as always, with some stretching.
Mid-afternoon, Bill and I decided to play a little tennis. Haven't done this in a few years. Hit the balls around for a bit, then played a set out. It was a beautiful day with a light breeze and strong, hot sun. Another nice little workout that was alot of fun doing together!
