Tuesday, June 13: Rest day. So best!

Wednesday, June 14: I woke up wanting so badly for it to be a rest day that I didn't make it to the gym. Instead, I did a half hour ab workout in my living room and in the afternoon rode my bike out to my parent's place in Burnaby. It took about 35 minutes to get there but I would have been faster if I had not hit every single light on the 10th Ave. bike route. I raced Scott who was driving, and got there only five minutes after him. Moral of the story: biking can be almost as fast as driving. Faster for short distances.

Thursday, June 15: 50 mins elliptical, reverse intervals, level 10, and then a bunch of ab work.

Friday, June 16 (today): I did a session of strength today, against advice and my better judgement. A nurse at my office said to me when I got in this morning, "Addiction comes in many forms," referring to how I couldn't resist a strength day even though I am injured. I avoided shoulder work, and dropped the weight on a few of the exercises. The only exercise that really hurt was the chest press, even when using the 12 lb dumbbells, so it confirmed my belief that the multiple push-ups in boot camp were to blame (that's when my shoulder tweaked). Leg work, ab work, and anything on the right side of my body were no problem. Biceps and triceps were fine as well.

Tomorrow, I will attempt swimming.
