No Pain!

In my shin splints, that is!

I followed through with my plan of doing the bike - strength circuit I have done for previous cross training sessions. Tonight's circuit looked like this:

10 minutes bike
50 crunches (sitting on ball)
15 squats w/ simultaneous bicep curls
12 V-sit twists (per side)
15 overhead tricep extentions
10 i-don't-know-the-technical-name lower ab moves*
12 stationary lunges (per side)

That was done a total of 3 times -- for a total of 30 minute cardio and 30 minute abs/strength.

*these ab moves are where you lie on your back. Hold a ball in your hands, stretched over head. Raise arms and legs. Transfer ball from hands to legs. Bring both down; then back up again for 1 rep. It feels great!

I'd say it was a great workout. And I love that my shins feel awesome! Zero pain!

I'm thinking I am going to try a run tomorrow!
