Weekly post: What did you do?

My apologies for missing this last week. I'd had some minor surgery (which is why I won't be contributing this week, bleh).

So, what did you do?

The lack of check-in post last week worked out well for me because I hadn't done any strength work that week. o_0

This week I got a new exercise video and started using it. A 30-minute arms workout on Sunday that I didn't care for, 30-minute one on Monday that was more of a full body thing (including squats, deadlifts, and pushups) and a 38-minute combination of the two on Wednesday.

I had sore hamstrings and calves on Tuesday but that was about it. (I'm almost sure it was the deadlifts. Every time I do those, it's fine at the time and I'm thinking I could handle a heavier weight no problem, but the next day, ouch!)

Also this week I bought some new heavier dumbbells (10 lbs) but I probably won't start using them for another week because I'm getting ready for a race on the 12th and don't want to shake things up too much.
