Cardio day
July 7, 2008
Today I really only had about 40 minutes to get in a workout and shower afterwards, because I needed to stop by the grocery store, also on my lunch break, to pick up stuff for dinner.

Neutral grip pulldown on the Lat machine
Rowing machine, targeting middle and lower back [...]
