Back at it. Felt like I had a solid workout. It felt good to get back in the gym and the gym was empty. I went pretty heavy for my last 3 sets of squats or what seemed to be heavy. I guess from being out of the gym I was moving really quickly between sets, which I'm fine with. I was able to add in some extra work at the end of my mandatory sets which I liked.
I did wear my new shoes to the gym. I usually start my new shoes in April and then they wear out after about a year. Anyway it's the first pair of crossfit type shoes and even though I wore them around the house the last few weeks it was interesting to workout in new shoes. Squats felt good. I think my heels might have come up on one rep or felt unbalanced on a rep but that's pretty normal with new footwear. What I didn't realize is the bottoms still had the shininess to them and I slipped alittle when doing incline hammer curls on the floor but nothing major. Running on the treadmill was a whole new experience. I'm not used to running with totally flat shoes, I must be so used to having the padded heel that it didn't feel right running at first. I walk and stand on my heels heavy so with these shoes I was striking with my fore foot and it threw me off at first but I think it's something I can easily get used to.
