Tuesdays are my weights and cardio circut day. No race on the eliptical today, just strength training and toning followed by 15 minutes on the eliptical beast. Today, having started a few minutes earlier than normal, I decided to toss in a new station to work out on, the Iso-Leg Press. As it stands I've been doing Iso work for the upper body which works out great for my shoulder and being able to tailor a workout around my needs there, now this presents a new challenge.. being able to independantly work each leg or work together like a regular leg press (push both legs at the same time).
I ended up doing a total of 3 sets of 5 at 268# per side.. not maxed out for what I can do but it definitely was nice to see that combined I'm still pushing over 500# with my legs. A long time ago in a galaxy no to far away in a universe similar to this one that number was nearly double.
One thing I'm struggling with though is that I'm not really dropping weight per say... just realigning some.. pants are fitting different, shirts are fitting different but I'm see sawing between 214 and 218#.
