This morning was legs day! A few weeks ago, I cringed at the thought of squats. Today, I embraced them! Squats make me feel strong and healthy. My legs have always been my strongest muscle group, but I still enjoy making them even stronger.
I really wish my complex’s gym had a seating calf raise machine. An alternative for next time will be to do the calf raises while holding dumbbells. I didn’t think about that option until after completing my workout for the morning.
I was pleasantly surprised to see that I increased my weights a little for leg presses. I do leg presses instead of curls, because my knees snap while doing them… and that just doesn’t seem healthy. Does anyone else have this problem?

On another note: something is going around. Everyone is getting sick. There are so many colleagues in my office who are coming down with something. Luckily, I haven’t picked up anything serious yet; which is shocking since I see these people 8+ hours a day. Today, I woke up with a runny and congested nose, but other than that I feel alright. I don’t know what the rest of the week will bring, but I plan to keep taking my daily multivitamin and drinking vitamin C.
What do you do to avoid getting a cold?
