Heavyhands, week 2, day 3

[avram]

Actually doing three days of Heavyhands this week! I normally take Saturdays off from exercising, but I won’t have time tomorrow, and I’ve got Thursday’s sushi overindulgence to work off.

Today I walked west, up Newark Avenue, as far as Five Corners, then back. Not a good idea — level ground is better than hills, and there were too many high-traffic intersections.

• Weight: 274.5
• Walked for 32 minutes, doing six (or maybe seven) sets of flyes, lifts, and overheads, 30 reps per set, with 1-lb weights.
• Heartrate started out in the 120s, eventually got up into 130s and sometimes 140s. Stayed in 150s when walking uphill (with occasional peaks at 161), but down into 120s on downhill slope (occasionally as low as 118, which is actually outside of what my monitor thinks is my cardio range, though not according to the formula given in Hot Point Fitness).
