Some more core

Yesterday, hit the weight room for some core work. First did a 30 minute spin class (I was late.). Then, did the following workout:
2 sets of 10 push-ups with bosu ball
4 sets of 25 sit-ups on incline with 12 lb. medicine ball
2 sets of 20 leg/knee lifts
100 bicycle crunches
Today, meant to have an active rest day, but got in a very small workout while encouraging kids on son's cross country team. It was 100 degrees when practice started. Got in 1/2 mile walk/jog to warm-up and then did 3 x 400 jogs with them, trying to encourage those who were struggling on the second half of a 6 x 400 set. Then did a 1/2 mile cool-down. Despite the heat, everybody was in good spirits after the practice.
Tomorrow, hope to slide into the club pool for a 2,000 meter workout before it opens up for 4th of July activities. Each year our pool has a greased watermelon water polo match on the 4th. Lots of good pizes for team that wins. Always all-men and a real macho kind of contest. About 7 years ago, I snuck in on the contest and those guys didn't know what to do. Rednecks have honor when it comes to women, so I was able to get away with much more than any of them ever could.
If I think about it, I will post a pic tomorrow of the brawl.
