I got into the gym in the afternoon, today was the best workout I've had in over a week. I was feeling pretty crappy all last week... wasn't sleeping or eating enough. I finished my finals and graduated from law school this weekend, was a huge relief and I think I was able to enjoy the gym more given the relief from law school stress. Anyway, got to put together a session for myself. I enjoy throwing together my own programming from time-to-time, I got a really good workout out of today.

A.
