Monday check-in

So I managed to get up and get out to the gym this a.m. This is a 15-minute drive out here in the desert. I did a rhythmic walk -- think of it as being light repetitive choreography on a treadmill. (It must look incredibly odd as I do a mini jazz square over and over while mouthing the words to my fav Linkin Park song.)

Today, I decided, was chest and back day. Every strength workout will end with some kind of abs.
