(TUESDAY) NOBODY's gonna rain on MYYY [kinetic] parade!

... 

Thunderstorms were APLENTY this ... afternoon!  But, NOT early enough to affect my [outdoor] BIKE riding--THANKFULLY.  Nevertheless, I performed my USUAL workout activities:

-- Walking on the parallel bars forward (2 laps), backwards (2 laps) and sideways (just 1 lap)

   ... 30 calf raises
(... I dunno why I've been typing 20, when--for the last ... ~two+ months, I always do 30.)

-- 20 bicep curls on left arm with 10 lb dumbbell (+4 extra, 'cuz my wrist gave out on four extensions)
-- 30 regular bicep curls and 20 hammer curls on right side with 15 lbs 

-- 10 isomeric leg extensions with my trainer's resistance on the left leg

-- HIP-ups: 140 total but 90 reps then rest and then 50 reps
(I again tied my RECORD-HIGH!)

-- Tricep extension 2 sets each arm 
   ... 1 set of 20 reps & 1 set of 15 reps on the left side--both with 10 lbs 
   ... 2 sets of 15 reps on the right, but 1st set was with 15 lbs and the 2nd set was 10 lbs 

-- 30 ball hamstring curls with 2 legs but also single leg hamstring curls 20 reps with each leg

-- ~13 minute BIKE ride

... AAAAAh, yes.  CONSISTENCY is KEY!

--> With the help of my MAIN nurse, I clarified a mixup with one of my CareGivers about the EXACT date I am treating my mom OUT to the new 'Oppenheimer' flick.
('Tis not 'til NEXT Wednesday, the 26th.)
   ... I ate an additional meal this afternoon, 'cuz of the confusion of my film outing & my delayed bowel movement.
        ... RELAX!  I excreted my bodily waste BEFORE the feeding, so 'twas ONLY stimulated by my [INTENSE] workout with my trainer--JUST as [my nurse &] IIIII predicted.
