Great workout today. 45 minutes on the elliptical stepper and pushed hard. 589 calories burned.
I tried something new today. I got up earlier, had a cup of coffee, and read a bit of a book before I went to workout. I've always assumed that coffee before a workout wasn't a good idea, but recently I read that the jury's out on this. Apparently there are good arguments on both sides. Anyway, for me it was good. I was more alert at the gym and felt like working out harder. (BTW I hope Herbie reads this; she's also a coffee addict like me.)

Great on the workout..the coffee might be what you need to perk you up enough to get that great workout..try it for a week and see if it helps..might be something you need to add to your day to get the workouts you need...

Hey dheimer, good to see your posting! I haven't been around FS much -- I've been crazy busy with work AND dealing with illness that my family and I are all passing back and forth all winter. Bah.
I love the coffee/workout combo. Sounds like it's working for you! I approve. :)
