On 2/10/05 I woke up with a scratchy throat. Less than 24 hours later I was flat on my back with a fever. I haven't had the flu in years. This one made up for all the lost time. It really kicked my butt. Yesterday (Friday) was the first day I felt decent. I was out of work a week, and during tax season that is not looked well upon. But, I don't care...I was sick, dammit!

Got back to the gym finally today. I was still a little weak, but at least I was back at it. Here's the numbers:

Warm Up 5 minutes 4mph 3% grade on treadmill

Machine Assisted Wide Grip Chins: -112X6X4X3X2 (weak as I could ever imagine being)
Seated Machine Row: 70X12 75X9 80X7 80X6

Hanging Leg Raises: 12 & 15
Bent Over Twists: 2 sets of 15
Seated Leg Tucks: 2 Sets of 15

25 Minutes on treadmill the Forest Treak Pgm at 3.8 mph with a 11.5% grade.

Felt wiped out, changed quickly, mixed the shake and drank it on the way home. I can't wait to feel 100% again.
