Bicep Workout

Bicep Workout

Got to the gym at lunchtime for a quick bicep workout. After starting with standing dumbbell hammer curls, I moved to standing plate raises (a bit of tri work), then did cable bicep pulldowns, then cable bicep pull-ups with the metal bar. I finished the workout with 50 crunches.

3 Treadmill Miles in 25:02

3 Treadmill Miles in 25:02

Finally got a sweet 19 inch flatscreen TV mounted in our finished basement in front of our treadmill. After doing so, I decided to take a test run on it last night. While watching the Red Sox game I ran 3 miles at 7.0, 7.3, and 7.7 speeds, finishing the run in 25:02 for an average pace in the 8:30 and change range. It was actually a pretty tough run trying to get back into the swing of things combined with the warm temperatures in the house. Overall I am glad I got the run in as I try to keep in shape.
