Felt like crap before. Feel better afterwards. Sue me if my energy slash effort wasn’t dialed in today. Second and fourth intervals were better. I can red-line around 110 RPMs, and hold over 100 for about half a minute. After that, I’m just gassed.

Every single one of these exercises sounds like a sexual position. I’d pay good money to see the “swiss ball crunches.”

ryn: That’s somehow NOT how I imagined a swiss ball crunchy to look like. I’m disappointed.
