  1. A1: 6;7;7 plates on the pulldown machine
    A2: 45;55;65 - I was working on form and getting my butt below my knees, but I know this isn't a good weight. I do better on these when it's five or six small sets to work up to it - guess that's for next time I do day 1.
    B1: 20;25;30
    B2: 20;20;20(each hand) - but yea, i recognize this isn't good either. yes. trend. lower body strength is lacking.
    C1: 50 on swinging hip machine
    C2: 20; 22.5; 25
    D1: 50 on swinging hi machine
    D2: 7.5, DB - but I had good form. confident to use 10 lbs next time.

    Ab circuit went fine - used a 30 lb weight for the 2nd one.
    I went on two 25 minute bike rides today - the first one was really hilly and I was definitely working hard, so I think the hills count as intervals for cardio.


    Just a headsup, Dartmouth's IM sports has this thing called "30 day Ironman" - where you have to do the full Ironman competition distances, but you have 30 days to do them - 2.4 miles swim, 26.2 miles run, 120 miles biking - so I'm doing that this month, so I think I'll have pretty good motivation for the cardio. Someone else do it with me! I am SO SLOW at swimming now. Need to get my kicking and breathing form down, it's a disaster. But the pool feels really good!
