Woke up, exercised (lifting some 38000lbs)

38,000 lbs?

Dude... :)

Yeah! Eleven different exercises, weights ranging from 40 to 160 lbs, reps
from 35 to 45. All the machines connected to a computer which tracks
everything. The machines even tell you to slow down when necessary. The
system is called Fitlinxx and the machines are all Cybex.

Here's August's data:

Kinda hard to understand, but that's because of the format.

I got it, but I'm curious.

With that aneurysm, why are your doing ab crunches?

Whoops! Maybe I'd better ask the doc about ab crunches. I don't think I
told the fitness instructor about it when she set up the program.

Thanks for the good eyes!

Um...if you want a bit of unsolicited advice, I'd take that routine
and show it to your physician. There are several items there that
would make me a little leery - like the rotations and lower body
presses.

Not a professional opinion - just saying.

Good idea. He knows I'm doing exercise machines, and didn't mention any
restrictions other than squatting with a heavy load.
