Saturday, Sunday, and Monday News All in One Place

So, nln.

On Saturday, because I had worked out Friday night and because if I worked out too much on Saturday BEFORE the gig, I could maybe hurt my hip all over again, I just did 75 pushups and sit-ups. I did not get hurt before, during, or after the gig.

On Sunday, I got up too late to join you at Peg's class, so I made a plan to try a bunch of exercises from Men's Health. We were getting ready for lunch and rearranging the gear so that everyone would be able to get to their stuff and also to the delicious party leftovers, when suddenly I picked up two guitars - light as can be AND about the same weight on each side - and screwed up my lower back. Since even an ab crunch seemed dangerous, my workout consisted of moping, ibuprofen, and television.

I was hesistant today cause my back AND hip still hurt, but we went to the gym, and I managed the following: 40 minutes on the elliptical (shades of last year!), 100 pushups (some of which were included in that fun plank walk/burpee thing we've done with Peg), 100 crunches (no obliques cause my back sent a stern warning), 50 crosses with 5 lb weights, 100 tricep dips, 100 of this lunge/curl/press combination exercise, 100 frogs. I messed around with a couple of other exercises but felt like I should quit while I was ahead.

I know you were there before we were. What did you do?
