The workout was okay, but as expected I ran into difficulty with the Overhead Press. I was able to get the first two sets up no problem, but then I missed the last rep of the 3rd and 4th set and the last 2 reps of the final (5th) set. Obviously it's not a matter of "strength" deficiency, since I can get the weight up no problem - it's purely endurance. I just don't have enough to keep going for the full 5 sets. Thankfully, endurance is something that I think goes up faster than strength, so I may even get this on the next pass through.
Tonight is Japanese class, so I need to finish off my homework sometime at work today (heh, thankfully it's not much). I've spent the last week learning Japanese vocab with Anki, so it's not like I'm slacking, just diverting my attention. Anyway, I'll do a full Japanese post sometime later, like maybe tomorrow, with some Anki results for the last few days.
