Decent little training since I have not done legs since the outer quad tear a coupld of weeks ago. NO problems on the right but my left is knotting up in the upper middle quad like it wants to tear too. As long as the tendon doesnt' rip again I am good. Not sure if I want that rehab again.

cardio from last week
thur friday 30 mins, sat no cardio, sunday 100 minutes stepmill,monday 45, tues and wed 30 mins

No training thurs or sat as we made the final push to get the new store done before jan 4. We finished up late Saturday with some minor stuff to do Sunday. Very pleased with how it turned out. Lots of room left to fill it with stuff. The other two are tougher joints and this new one is in a little more money side of town with a ton of traffic all day. We worked so hard on it that I did not take anytime to advertise or promote. Now I have to get this part of town broken in to the Spud way. I am also trying to juggle handling the financial and ordering part one of the other stores until I get a routine on how to deal with it all I am pretty much wide open all the time.
