After weighing myself yesterday, I was not too happy with what I saw. I expected 153ish, but the scale showed an additional 2 lbs. I suppose it's okay for now, but I hope to turn this back around in preparation for the Death Ride in 4 weeks. I think the alcohol "poisoning" on Saturday contributed greatly to this additional weight where my body seems to be holding a lot more water (as a defense mechanism) than normal.
The effects of alcohol probably also contributed to me not remembering what my pin# was to get into the gym. I must have sat there for a couple minutes trying to remember what it was. The funny thing is I went yesterday and didn't have this problem.
I did finally manage to get in and get my back worked out. 4 exercises 20-30+ reps. Core workout completed also. Pretty decent workout and was able to push through a couple of sets when I wanted to quit.
For lunch today, I hope we can do a mixture of hills and flats where I need to work on sprints in preparation for a crit this Thursday. I did do cardio yesterday and felt good, although my left inner thigh did tighten up for a bit mysteriously. It went away after I toned down the intensity on the elliptical, but it was definitely surprising and unexpected.
