Strength training after only about 10 minutes of cardio warm-up on an exercise bike. Felt so much stronger than when in the past I would do a whole cardio session before personal training, trying to maximize my gym membership. No, I need to be fresh and not tired to maximize the benefit of resistance training. Good advice from my trainer to warm up just enough.

Also saw my new sports medicine physician for the first time. Discussed anemia and exercise and a few other topics. I told her I am exercising to become stronger and more flexible and not for a number on the scale. She said it was a good attitude but also that the number on the scale would eventually go down with consistent exercise.

The abs feel wonderfully toned after a couple of exercises targeting my core.
