back to gym ratting

at the risk of becoming very boring with little talk and all gym routines here i go again:

-squats on bosu ball, flat side to me 3x 12; 2 were weighted, once with punch ups, 1x w/ weighted shouulders, last round was slow
-round the world lunges- 1 set 6 times around
-sumo squats 3x 12
- lunges regular 1x12, with 10 lbs; 1x w pushups and leg up (static lunge)
-tricep pull backs 3x 12 @ 15 lbs
- tricep dips 3x 15 with lifted feet
- 3 sets of 12 each side- side lunges with cross leg pickup
- plank 3x 45 sec on avg
- bridge w leg pick up 3x 12 total (6 per side) w 2 sec hold
-balance on roller ball thinge- toe touchdown 2x16

i think thats pretty intense. took about 50 min including some stretching.

i might note that i have been sick hence the lack of activity; both on here and in real life. this wk i hope to work out again tom am and then run thursday for the first time in a while... then friday yoga/weights; sat more running, sunday bike riding. monday back to the grind.
