DAY 1 Workout

Today's power hour at the gym was about reincorporating strength training into my routine. It was definitely a challenge to get through, and I had to rest for about a minute between sets. But I still feel really good about it. I can only improve from here, right?

Warm up. 10 mins on the treadmill. 3.5 mph at elevation 1.0. I did a minute of jogging (minutes 3-4) at 5 mph in an attempt to incorporate HIIT running, but I think I'm not quite there yet. 

Leg Press. 3 x 12 at 70 lbs. 

Smith Machine Squats. 1 x 12 no weights on the bar (to get proper form down). 2 x 12 with 20 lbs added. 

Smith Machine Push Ups. 3 x 10. Used the bar to push against. 

Adductor. 3 x 12 at 35 lbs. 

Abductor. 3 x 12 at 40 lbs. 

Dumbbell Deadlifts. 1 x 12 with 20 lb weights. 1 x 12 with 10 lb weights. 

Cool down. 17 minutes (random number, I know, I was just waiting for John to finish his workout) random hill setting on the stationary bicycle. Level 4.

Feeling a bit like jelly, and wiped out, but also feeling really good.
