Seeing this post actually got me motivated to work out tonight, so yay! This has been a good week for running but not a great one for strength.

I'm still haven't settled on a routine, am trying out some different stuff. Sunday I did this 15-minute dumbbell video twice. Wednesday my legs were really tired but I did some upper-body dumbbell exercises on my own. Just now I did this 40-minute dumbbell workout streaming on Netflix and I liked it a lot, sort of like going to a class except no one's watching and I can stop for a break if I want. :)

I've mostly been using 5lb weights. I have some 8lb ones too that I know I can handle for bicep exercises and probably also some of the tricep and back stuff and squats, but not so much for the shoulders (or forward lunges because ick). I'll probably want to invest in some 10lb weights soon.

I've only done bits of ab work here and there this week. I know I should work on that more, will give it a try tomorrow.

Ooh. Looks like you've found some useful online videos -- wanna post an entry with recs? I'd bet people would be interested.
