cardio

30 min precor + 40 pushups + 6 pullups immediately afterwards
feeling: I kind of like doing upper body endurance training on the weekend. I also like the idea of getting to 100 pushups in a row and say 20 pullups in a row. Good goal.

feeling: pretty happy with constant improvement in bench press every week although I can't imagine getting an extra two reps every week on 225 any more, but who knows. Maybe I can get 225 11 times next week.

feeling: very thankful of the short run. I need to consider how to squeeze as many of these in during the day as possible.
