I'm Back

First day back in the gym after hurting myself (baseline fracture of my left pointer finger - power tool accident).

What's interesting is Pat's post from a few days ago, asking if exercising helps you to lose weight. I didn't exercise for 10 days, but ate SUPER clean, and also pretty light - probably around 1400-1500 calories per day over the past 10 days, and only meats and vegetables. Two small meals per day. And I lost SIX pounds over those 10 non-workout days! I feel great, too. Lean. Good feeling.

So this morning I did:

Max pushups in 3:00 (77)
Back Squat: 135 x 5 x 10 (5 sets of 10 reps)
Helen in a boat:
3 rounds of: 500m row, 21 53lb kb swings, 12 pushups - Stopped half-way through, finger was hurting.
7 sprints up and down the basketball court
