I did complete a 30 minute elliptical on Tuesday which was a new record for me.  My heart rate averaged about 130bpm, with a high of 155 at the end.  I did not die.

Today, I did my normal Wednesday workout with a few deletions and additions.  I now do a 'standard' 15 minute elliptical cardio warm up (today showed a 124bpm average and 143bpm high) to begin each M-W-S session.  I also did some seated, front, wide-grip pull downs (lats) on the cable machine.  I substituted some machine gun curls with dumb bells for biceps.  Gave my deltoids a rest (been hurting lately).  Weighed out 'heavy' due to Tuesday's eating and drinking ..... felt bad at 237.6.  Couldn't be because of the three drinks I had last night, big dinner out, and the ice cream and cake before bed time...... I KNOW I MUST BEGIN SOME FORM OF EATING PLAN.
