Day of the Walking Lunges

[avram]

Heft, heft. Stretch, stretch. Ache, ache. Day 11 of Hot Point weightlifting. Day 12 (coming up on Thursday) marks the end of Phase 1. I don’t think I’ll be moving on to Phase 2; that requires four days of weightlifting. (Phase 3, for professional athletes, requires five.) I do think I’ll be adding in at least two days a week of aerobic exercise on my Phase 1 off days; that’s less than an hour a day, and I can read while doing it.

I found myself able to do two exercises (beginning push-ups and walking lunges) that I’d been unable to do on previous attempts. Part of this was physical improvement, and part paying closer attention to the descriptions of the exercises in the book.

I also discovered that I hadn’t actually registered the domain yesterday — a transaction I thought PayPal would handle automatically required action on my part. So I’ve done it today.
