Weights

No bike ride today. Or maybe I should say no real bike ride. Instead, I decided to head over to our community's gym to lift a few weights. This isn't really a New Year's resolution or anything, I just have felt like my rock climbing isn't really progressing and I figured that since I only climb once a week I should probably do weights once a week as well. I really don't have any clue what I'm doing in a weight room but I guess I muddled through alright. I started on a stair stepper thing for 10 minutes of easy warm up. Then I went ahead and did 2 cycles of the weight machines. On some of them it didn't really feel like I was using the right muscles. For instance on the "ab crunch" machine I felt like I was using my legs more than my abs, but I guess I will know more tommorow when I figure out what parts of me are sore. After the weights, I cooled down with 10 minutes on the recumbant bike. After biking outdoors so much recently it was a real bore pedaling in place. I figure I can work on my cadence though and try to keep it over 100 for the course of the "ride". I also think that next time I should bring some music to listen too. I'm dangerously close to impulsively buying an ipod.
