I had to wait two days before making it back to the gym...I was fatigued as hell, and my legs were stiff despite stretching and hot tub. I think it will be a month of going to gym before my body catches up to last year's rhythms.
With the mask, you can't really tell it's me stacking that weight, can you ;>

Notes
- The () indicate a set where I had to take multiple rest breaks to finish
- There is dispute as to whether the abductor/adductor machines are good for you; my trainer argued that they were good for stabilizing the muscles you used in your real core exercises. Plus, they look good on my sheet LOL, and make me feel stronger in my legs
- I had to back down weight on the Preacher Curl
- I was too winded to finish the third sets on my dumbbell exercises
- There was a lil shortie latina on the Leg Press machine working 4 plates. I had peaked at 3 plates last year LOL. Kinda cute with thick thighs and a big round rear-end. Not surprising with the weight she was lifting!
