Day 33

Weights -- I successfully completed three sets of 12 reps each of the standard routine.

It was still very hard on my arms - particularly the tricep push-down, the military press, and the bicep curls.  The dead lift seemed harder too, but I think it was because i was trying to do them better (using more rump and less leg).

I did a shorter warm-up (only 5 mins of vigorous walking and 2 minutes to cool down) and a brief but aggressive cool-down (I jogged for 4 minutes at 7mph).  Jogging got my heart to 185bpm, which is probably too high.

I was sore today - I don't know if it was residual from Tuesday's lift (I don't remember being as sore yesterday), or from the swimming (which doesn't seem like it should make one sore).  But it was fairly pervasive and concentrated in the shoulders, so maybe swimming is starting to hit my muscles more now.

Keep on truckin'.
