I’ve got nothing much to add tonight. I’ve got my college assessment tomorrow. I suspect that some kind of math course will be in my future during the summer. It doesn’t affect my acceptance, but it’s been 24 years since I took pre-college math, although I have taken some statistics courses in the last five.

The morning was 2 x 30-min sessions on the treadmill. In the afternoon I did a 15-min warm-up on the treadmill, followed by:

Where there is a single number that confirms that I did the number of reps called for. Where there are two numbers the first is the amount of weight I used, followed by reps.

And I followed with another 15 mins on the treadmill. I had planned to do 30-degree push-ups, but I just couldn’t get comfortable on the angle. So, I did the first set as full, on the floor push-ups. I realised that I couldn’t likely do another 20 over the next two sets, so when I got to them again I started off with the knee push-ups, but did half that way and went back to half on my toes. I figure at least until I move to the next level (3 sets of eight) I’ll likely do them this way. So between the squats, the bent-over rows, the push-ups, and the prone jackknife, my hands and wrists are sore. Oh well, I’ll live. The one really good thing is that I managed all three sets of the prone jackknife without falling off the ball! You know, sometimes it’s the little things.
