Turns out I've been calculating my weights wrong

Today I went to the gym before noon, for the sake of having a change - and also because there's a wine reception tonight at which there will be people I want to see. And it turns out I've been calculating my benchpress weights wrong: including the bar, I'm lifting 60kg. Go me?

1 mile in 10:20, treadmill. 5km in 14:00, exercise bike. 3x5 @60kg, benchpress. 3x10 back extensions. 3x6 @18kg, bicep curl. 3x10 @30kg, seated row. Some other mucking around.

Mass: between 101.3 and 101.6kg.

Now I have to take notes for this research paper due in ten days, and attend a Plato class. Among other things that should be done sooner rather than later.

Wow: that's really impressive.

I confess, I impressed myself. It's only a bit more than half my body-weight, though, but eventually I will lift a whole me!

Whereas I struggle with 15kg... You are Mighty!

I use the Smith cage. It makes lifting somewhat easier.
