Exercise Step strength
Time 60:00
Comments Pretty effective mixture of cardio on step and strength training with barbells.

Exercise Run
Course Paloheinä hill
Distance ~10K
Time 56:43
Comments Ave 136, +7.5C, cloudy. The weather forecasts have been telling us the whole week that after a miserable week the Sunday will be partly cloudy and warm (high +9C). We had planned to have a longer run in the nice weather, but as Sunday turned out as dull as the previous days we opted for a shorter run.

It was not a bad day for running, only that it was a little muddy. A little glimpse of sunshine would not have been bad either. Maybe in April?!
@ Wed 22/11/2006
Exercise Run
Course Treadmill
Time 35:00
Comments Ave 141, max 161. We ran hill intervals at level 5 and speed ranging from 9 to 10.5 kilometers per hour. We wonder why we have the funny dizzy feeling after running on the treadmill. We never felt that way in Bloomington.

Exercise Stretching
Time 60:00
Comments This stretching session is as true workout as any other session. I really like the music, now that I can actually pay attention to it. What I don't like is the instructor's "yeah yeah".
@ Mon 20/11/2006
Exercise Strength
Time 60:00
Comments Unexpectedly, I was not sore after the last strength session --- still I retained the same set of weights today.

I've never though that one can choreograph weight lifting to music, but working out shoulder to Tom Jones'

"If I only knew
What I could do
To make you, make you happy
To make you make you happy"

certainly is FUN.

Exercise Run
Course Central park
Distance 8K
Time 48:23
Comments Ave 145, max 158, +3.5C, cloudy. Very comfortable conditions for outdoor running: warm and calm. The trail is icy at parts and it is quite gray outside. One more month and the days start get longer!

Exercise Indoor soccer
Time 60:00
Comments Tomi plays indoor soccer with his colleagues every week.
@ Tue 14/11/2006
Exercise Fitball
Time 60:00
Comments Workout using a gigantic soft ball. We started with aerobic warmup and continued with the core section: a lot of balancing, some isometric and basic crunches.
@ Mon 13/11/2006
Exercise Strength
Time 60:00
Comments We had a new exercise program --- not that much different from the previous one but quite a bit harder. I used the same weights as before, if not a little bit lighter, but still I had a hard time doing all the repetitions. I expect to be sore tomorrow.
@ Fri 10/11/2006
Comments We spent the weekend in Hämeenlinna.
@ Wed 08/11/2006
Exercise Run
Course Treadmill
Time 40:00
Comments Ave 149, max 169. We ran rolling hills for 20 minutes at the level 10 and pace 9kph, and found ourselves totally exhausted. We switched to the level 4 and continued for another 20 minutes increasing the pace up to 10.5kph. The level indicates the steepest incline in the route.
@ Mon 06/11/2006
Exercise Strength
Time 60:00
Comments Basic, slow tempo workout for all major muscle groups. I'd like to have more of the core exercise, though.
@ Sun 05/11/2006
Exercise Run
Course Treadmill
Time 45:00
Comments Ave 147, max 163. This time we did four sets of speed drills(speed/time): 10kph/0:30, 11.5kph/1:00, 12.5/2:30 with two-minute recovery periods in between. We finished with a brisk one-minute at 13kph.
Exercise Stretch
Time 60:00
Comments This session was not only about stretching, but a full-body workout in some sense. We did some weird balancing stuff for warmup. Also some movements made to stretch some body parts were kind of taxing to other parts.
@ Sat 04/11/2006
Exercise Run
Course Paloheinä
Time 59:45
Comments -6.6C, sunny, calm. Most gorgeous morning; sun was shinging from the clear sky and there was no breeze. The ground was covered with dust of snow.
@ Wed 01/11/2006
Exercise Strength
Time 60:00
Comments Today's session was pretty tough. We did a lot of repetitions, faster and slower, moving from one muscle group to another in high tempo. After the strength session we attended a shorter session to work out tense shoulders and back --- a common ailment of people sitting by the desk and computer for entire day. I could barely hold my arms up after the strength training.
