  Used the smith rack for the bench presses. Partially because of safety without a spotter, but mostly because the rack is in the barbell area. Seems a hell of a lot easier to lift the same amount of weight in a smith rack as compared to self-supported. I knew this, of course, but the difference is striking.

  I've made myself a weekly schedule, which I know is the kiss of death but I'm an organizer.   :P   As follows...

  Mon:    Crossfit WOD

  Tue:    Endurance WOD

  Wed:   Crossfit WOD

  Thu:    Endurance WOD

  Fri:     Crossfit WOD

  Sat:    Crossfit WOD

  Sun:    Endurance WOD

  ***  Take rest days as needed.

  I'm going to use swimming as endurance for a while, I think. Always wanted to get proficient at swimming, and it's relatively easy on the knees. We shall see.

  Motivational picture today: Miss Jessica Simpson. She gets a lot of crap for being ditzy, but come on. Very pretty, hot curvy body, sweet, fun, happy, good voice, patriotic, country girl. What's not to like?   =)
