I made it to the gym over lunch today.  It was a VERY speedy workout - but, it was a good endurance strength workout.  I did my exercises as if they were compound sets.  Basically, I did 1 set 20 reps of chest press, then straight into 20 reps of curls - then back to chest, until I finished 3 sets of each.  Then, I took a small break - then went into bent over rows & lat raises.  I did this because it REALLY saves a ton of time vs. resting between each set and between each exercise.  It also gives you a slight cardio-like boost which is good.  I probably should have mixed some abs in there, and I think I will next time.
 
And, my goal is to still hit the pool after work today.  I haven't been at 5:30 before, and I know there is a water aerobics class - so hopefully they don't close too many lanes for it.  I guess I'll find out. If it sucks, I'll have to find another way to get some swimming in.  Maybe take a longer lunch once or twice a week.  We'll see.
 
As for dinner - I'm going to decide what to make once I get home.  I'm not sure what time I will end up getting home.  I'm planning on 6:30ish I guess.  So, depending on my energy level, we'll either do meatloaf or goulash.  Exciting I know.
 
Anyway, I need to try to get motivated to work some more.  I'm stuck trying to build a tracking database.  Fun!  Only 5 hours left!
