5 min bike (1.8 mi = 28 cal), 10 min elliptical machine (0.65 mi = 123.5 cal), 45 lat pulls, 30 tricep presses, 25 bicep curls, 100 ab presses, 50 reps on the hip adductor (butt), 75 reps on the hip abductor (inner thighs), 70 leg presses, 20 leg curls, and 30 reps in each direction on torso rotation. On the strength & weight machines, I used more weight and did fewer repetitions just because I felt like a change -- a quicker but still intense workout. I ended with 11 min on the stair-climber (45 floors = 124 cal).

25 min bike (9 mi = 117 cal), 18 min elliptical machine (1.1 mi = 202 cal), 50 lat pulls, 30 tricep presses, 25 bicep curls, 100 ab presses, 50 reps on the hip adductor (butt), 75 reps on the hip abductor (thighs), 70 on the leg press (and ZERO on the leg curl, because I realized that the 70 reps I did on the leg press were with 90 lbs instead of my customary 70 lbs), and 8 minutes on the stair-climber (29 floors = 80 cal). I tried to do torso rotations: I got 25 done in one direction, but only 5 in the other before I felt something clicking amongst my ribs so I quit, and I'm going to take tomorrow off of that specific machine. I'll probably take it easy tomorrow too.

Took it kind of easy since I start work today. 20 min bike (7.2 mi = 94 cal), 25 min elliptical machine (1.25 mi = 247 cal), and 35 reps in each direction on the torso rotation. I am determined to rejuvenate my metabolism a little, and also get rid of these big flops on my waistline.
