The high point of the weekend was having ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cattitude home on Saturday, with time for Scrabble and conversation and a walk in the park. Sunday morning, he took the subway downtown to work, and I went for a shorter walk, in which I saw daffodils (my first of the season), more crocuses, and forsythia. Most of the forsythia are running late this year, and indeed I'd about concluded "it's going to be a while" after passing two forsythia bushes with buds showing no color. Then I got to the corner of 217th and Park Terrace West, and found a forsythia with quite a few flowers open. Not the full-on yellow glory of being entirely in bloom, but a nice start.
Today, work and gym, both reasonably successful, though the work was more frustrating (trying to fit a 390+-page book into 384 pages) than the exercise.
Gym numbers:
Cardio, 12 minutes, top heart rate 136
Leg press, 280 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Chest press, 50 pounds, 2 sets of 12
Calf raise, 70 pounds, 3 sets of 15
Balance ~fly, 50 pounds, 2 sets of {15 with each leg forward}
Cross-body pull (for rotator cuff), 35 pounds, 20 with each arm (since it seems plausible to exercise the undamaged shoulder as well)
Crunches, 3 sets of 30
Back arches, 3 sets of 17
Tree, 6 sets of {3 on each leg}
Balance lateral raise, 2.5 pounds each hand, 15
Balance squats, 2 sets of 15
Biceps curls, 12 pounds each hand, 20, 15
