Who Doesn't Love A Quickie?

Well, it's Monday again and given that its not pizza night and last Monday's workout partner is out-of-town, I chose Planet for a typical nothing fancy bi's and tri's workout. Despite the lack of variety in Saturday's yoga class, my arms, shoulders, and upper back area was super sore yesterday so rather than weights I did the eliptical followed by an all-abs session including balancing leg pull-ins on a bench, planks (side and front), weighted standing side-crunches, and stability ball leg lifts. Today was supposed to be a run day but after a seriously short sleep last night and battling my closing eyelids all day at work, I opted for a short 10 minute eliptical warm-up instead. I really didn't want to go to the gym at all but I figure a quickie workout is better than no workout. I mean, a quickie anything is generally better than nothing, eh? haha

So anyway, after my warm-up I dragged myself upstairs and did the usual 3 sets of 8 regular bicep curls, hammer curls, tricep bench dips balancing my feet on the stability ball, and tricep presses on the cables. To finish I only did one ab workout which was front and side leg lifts on the standing leg lift machine. On my way out one of the usuals sarcastically yelled out, "did you even work out today"?! I shouted back with a smirk, "just a quickie today..." and then secretly felt guilty on my way down the stairs as I realized I'd barely been there an hour. Planning on getting a rediculously long sleep tonight and doing an intense leg workout tomorrow to make up for it!
