Last Workout of 2006
December 31, 2006

I did Get Ripped! by Jari Love as my last official workout of 2006. I really heavied up the weights on the chest presses and used 17 pounds on the barbell. Oooh. I think I felt it more in my arms than my chest though. Doh. While I was doing it, I actually wished I could have used more weight though.
I am happy that I got through the rest of the workout okay. I could even do most of the shoulder work with 3 pound dumbbells! I think I only skipped a couple of reps during that section. Man, my shoulders are really weak and I really need to work on my strength there.
I am really, really, really hoping that Danskin starts to put those weights out again. I mean if they were, this would be the time to release them since a lot of people make those resolutions to get fit and lose weight this time of year.
Right after New Year’s really is the best time to get a lot of fitness bargains since a lot of stores put that stuff on sale because of all the people buying fitness equipment this time of year. Although I do pretty much have all the equipment I need right now. Then again, I could probably go for some heavier dumbbells. I suppose I will go check to see what Sport’s Authority will have on sale after the New Year.
I have also been thinking about getting a bike, but I am not sure about that yet. If I did, I would definitely get a really cheap bike either from K-Mart or WalMart. But whether I get one or not mostly depends on whether I get a job at the State Capitol or at a hospital about a mile away from the house. A bike would certainly make more sense economically since the Bus is $2 one way here! $2! – that’s just crazy.
