30 minutes (2.5 miles) on the treadmill and stretching afterwards.

This article is very interesting. It's about why women should weight train.

I hear you sarah, you'll find your groove soon enough. You may have to split your workouts up. Do 2 or 3 exercises in the morning before work and 2 or 3 after work. Something like that.

It's been a few days...however I ran 7.36 miles on Saturday. Boy were my legs jello after that, but it felt really really good and I felt like I really pushed myself.

Today I went to the fitness center and used the Nautilus equipment. I didn't write it all down, but let me see if I can remember everything I did:
Nautilus Compound Row
12x50
12x65
12x80
Nautilus Lat Pulldown
12x50
12x65
10x80
Nautilus Incline Press
3x12x20
Nautilus Lateral Raise
2x12x20
10x30
Nautilus Bicep Curl
3x12x20
Nautilus Tricep Extension
3x12x20

Man, my arms are shaking. I haven't had that much of a workout in a long time. I'm going to be sore tomorrow.

Re: Bodybuilding 101 January 2007

I ran 5K in 34 minutes tonight. A new personal best for the 5K. What made it even MORE of a personal best is that I only walked ONE time...and it was only the straight side of the track between the two turns. Except for that one little slow down on that one little stretch, I ran the whole time WOOHOO

Then I went and did an upper body workout.
