2) Session 0.5: cross-training
Date: Monday, July 2nd
Workout: Exercises at the gym
Comments: Well, I headed to the gym to go my usual Monday evening strength class. Because Sunday was a holiday here in Canada, I guess a lot of people thought the centre would be closed, and as a result I was the only person to show up besides the instructor. So she let me go to the gym...
