Another week starts. A good night of sleeping and at the gym at 6A.

Did my core workout and my circuit. I worked my shoulder flyes into the circuit and then did my elbow work, 20 minute cardio and my stretching.

I did not have a set rest time, I just took what I needed. We are trying this method out to see what happens. I am hoping this eliminates or reduces some of the flustration I have been feeling with meeting the predetermined rest intervals.

Monday
Core Circuit – Repeat 3 times with no rest, 15 – 20 lb – 12 each x 4 SH Flyes.
Circuit – Repeat for 5 total sets
Dumbbell Push Press – 50 lb Dumbbells – 11 reps
Rear Lunge to Row (Set at top position)
55 lbs – 10 reps each side – keep core tight!!!!!
5 sets of shoulder flyes (15 pounds)

Set 1 30 second rest
Set 2 60 second rest
Set 3 90 second rest
Set 4 90 second rest

Jim M. called to tell me about a new Advance Kettlebell class he is starting this Tuesday at th YMCA. It will be a 12 week series and if I pre pay it will only be 100 bucks. I can’t wait to get back into a class environment.

I am not as sure about the Sunday Weight/Strength at the gym. I checked today and I am the only one signed up. They need at least 8 in the class so I will not be suprised that the class is cancelled. The chances of getting 7 more members by Sunday is slight.

I made my trip reservation for Hot Springs. This is going to be great motivation for me. I need to get there and show all those young guys what a 55 year old guy can do.

What is a baby boomer?
People born between (and including) 1946 and 1964. After American soldiers returned home from World War II in1946, the United States experienced an explosion of births (hence the name baby boom) that continued for the next 18 years, when the birth rate began to drop. In 1964, baby boomers represented 40% of the population, which means that more than one third of the population was under 19 years of age. In the 1990s, approximately 76 million people in the United States were born in the baby boom years, representing approximately 29% of the country's population. Since baby boomers make up such a sizable portion of the consuming public, their spending habits and lifestyles have a powerful influence on the economy.
