Hey. 82 degrees in the pool, gonna go relax in there for a while. it's supposed to rain on and off all day, been raining but barely so I'm enjoying it.

Jim must have got a new number. Someone called me and when I looked at the number, the new phone says "Killeen, TX'.  Pretty cool feature.  I left him a message, I was at the gym.  Did a new workout - Bridges with 110 or so lbs.  AFter 25 of those, the hammies really feel it man.  Helps out the lower back too.  Great workout.  easy to do.

Most of my workouts have been cardio-based.. meaning high reps.  20+, usually 30+ reps.   Did 3 sets of 25 squats.. feels great with no weight.  As soo as I do it with weight, my knees hurt too much.  Just gotta do what I can.. better than doing nothing at this point.

Hey Jim, here's a tip that I use myself: When working out, especially starting from scratch, use a lighter weight than what you're able to do comfortably.    Slowly build up.. I'd say take at least a month to build up to a slightly strenuous workout.  It works really well for me with all of the tendonitis that I've had.  I still can't do any shoulder workouts, chest workouts, bi's or tri's.   I guess I did start doing my rotator cuff workout today again, first time in a month and a half.  I know my left rotator cuff isn't good 'cause when I drive to and from work on my bike, my left shoulder hurts 2/3 of the way into it.  

Anyway, have fun, folks.  Gonna relax in the pool, study for the GRE, then make some stir fry.
