(I "eat" AAALL of my "food" via LIQUID-formula through a peg tube attached to my stomach that juts outta my lower abdomen.  Therefore, "eating" almost ALWAYS stimulates my bladder.)

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

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

-- 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

   ... 30 calf raises
