That was an epic strength workout at the YMCA. I just am not used to working out at a real gym, so I was like a kid a in a candy store. I wanted to try out all the machines!

I also did 90 minutes of tree trimming yesterday which was so hard I was shaking afterwards.

Wed Strength Workout (45 minutes)

I took out squats because they seem to aggravate my knees.

Here's what I did today- 3 sets of pull ups with the pull up assist strap. 3 sets of australian pull ups hands over bar, but with feet elevated this time to add more resistance. 3 sets of australian pull ups hands UNDER bar, but with feet elevated this time to add more resistance. I mixed in 9 sets of 10 push ups into that (90 push ups total). I also did calf raises on a stair, alternated with chair dips (3 sets each). I then went upstairs and did deadlifts alternated with hip thrusts (3 sets of each). I hooked my leg up to the bow flex and did front, back & side leg raises with 50 lbs of resistance on the band (3 sets each, both legs). I'm hoping the hip thrusts and back leg raises will be enough glute work to make up for taking time off squats for now.

Tuesday Exercise Bike (20 minutes)

I stopped when the right knee started hurting again. Get better stupid knee!

Monday Strength Workout 45 minutes

And now my knee is pissed again. I'm going to replace the squats with other glute exercises and see if that helps.

Thursday Swimming (30 minutes)

22 laps. I used a knee brace to help with the knee pain I had while swimming last week. It helped hold off the pain longer, but still started hurting around lap 17 or 18. I will keep using the brace during swimming until the knee gets all better.
