been doing ok on the food lately. however, have not done my B workout cardio yet.

Thursday:
-2 mile dog walk
-1 mile walk to work

Friday:
-AM Stage 2 Workout A:

-Front Squat/PushPress: 1x10@ oly bar + 10#; 1x7@ oly bar + 15#; 1x3@oly bar + 15#
*doing the 15# i really started to feel like i had to throw the bar up to lift it. I did 7 reps, then rested and did 3 more.

-Step-up: 1x10@ bench + 2 10# DBs; 1x10 @ bench + 2 12# Dbs
*even if i cheat a little, the step is so high that i am still working my quads to lift myself. thus, i am not as worried about cheating. i am still focusing on shifting my weight from one leg to another, but the higher step was definitely the way to go

-DB 1 point row: 1x10 w. 2 25# Dbs; 1x10 w. 2 30# Dbs
*had trouble keeping balance on the 30#s, but i was using my weaker leg (the one with the bad knee) for the last set

-Static lunge, rear foot up: 1x10 on single step w. 10# Dbs; 1x10 on single step w. 12# Dbs
*can probably go up to 15# Dbs or mayber 20s. these seemed easier

-push up: 2x10 @ 30 deg. angle
*the first set was not as strenuous as the second. i still can't do one from the floor, though. :-(

-plank: 1x30 sec; 1x20 sec; 1x10 sec; 1x30 sec; 1x20 sec; 1x10 sec
*this was really really really hard. i was sweating a lot by this point and think i had worn myself out.

-cable wood chop: on ball instead: 1x10 w. 25# weight; 1x10 w. 35# weight
*the 35# is hard to lift side to side. don't know how well i did these.

i've been good about the food.

bf bought me orange flavored peeps today. as candy goes, they're not so bad: 110 calories for four.
