Back to Strength Training, Mixing it Up Again and Jury Duty?!

I have no idea what tomorrow is going to look like as far as working out goes: I have to report for jury duty?! 

Today however, I am going to go back to working in a rotational strength based workout with cardiorespiratory interval training on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. My plan is to have 6-7 main exercises that I will do for each body part and then mix in various different exercises each day to keep it from getting boring.

Today's quote is from Robert Frost:

"The jury consist of twelve persons chosen to decide who has the better lawyer."

Workout: Chest, Biceps and Cardio Interval Training
Cardio Training/Warm-Up:
HIIT Spin Bike Training, 20 minutes
Bicycle Abdominal Crunches, 75 repetitions
Weight Training:
Bench Press, 3 sets of 4-6 repetitions

Have a Great Day!!

Jury Duty, Shoulders and Triceps

Ah, jury duty. I got a summons to report tomorrow and looked tonight to see when I am supposed to be at the courthouse in the morning and I found that I have been rescheduled. I have been rescheduled for February 10th when I will be on contract to go paddle on the Rio Grande in southwest Texas until March 2nd. I have petitioned to be rescheduled or excused, but I have a funny feeling that I am going to get an unsympathetic e-mail response tomorrow. I am happy to serve on jury duty but not at the cost of missing a contract that represents 10% of my annual income. Unfortunately, $12.00 a day plus mileage will not make up for that either.

Today's quote is from Dave Barry:

"We operate under a jury system in this country, and as much as we complain about it, we have to admit that we know of no better system, except possibly flipping a coin."
