August 18th to August 21st

Another week and more gains!!!

Rolled my ankle during our yard sale, so that cost me a little for Cardio, since I needed to leave out cardio for a couple of days. Now today, I made a major gain on my Elliptical mile, I attribute this not to 1 month back at the gym, I attribute it to the 2 years of kung fu classes. I did the mile on the elliptical in 9:57 today. I broke 10 minutes, which for a 42 year old 225# guy, is pretty amazing I think.
