Ahhh, good workout.

32 lateral pulldowns @ 60 lbs
28 butterfly flaps @ 50 lbs
10 butterfly flaps @ 40 lbs
32 forward pulldowns @ 60 lbs
32 situps
5 min on exercise bike, singing.

I have figured out how to not push myself too hard on the exercise bike. I can't remember where I read that if you couldn't carry on a conversation while exercising, you were doing it too hard, but I heard that somewhere.

So, I decided I'd sing while I worked out...

Yep- that one of the recommendations. I do it, too. Makes it a bit more fun as well!

My daughter used to like to pull my chain in various ways when she was his age. I wouldn't take it to heart.

My current issue singing is with my cats. They are apparently unable to distinguish between singing and heartbroken sobbing. Especially classical singing. When I was having a fine time before Christmas singing along to Messiah they got Deeply Concerned and flocked around trying to comfort me. Touching but annoying. I wanted to sing! :)

Of course, I find it difficult to distinguish between hunting cries and songs of triumph, and serious feline pain, so I ought not complain.
