I did actually make it to the gym one more time before the hours (the gym's and mine) got Christmas-crazy. Let's see if I can remember what I did... I know I squeezed it in between the final big grocery-get, last minute gift-finding, and making dinner, while my mom watched the kids (which included tobogganing and playing little-tiny-ball with Ben. She's a hero.) I do recall that it was short and sweet, and likely involved squats...
Yep:
Squats - 75 x 10, 10, 10, 10
Lat pulls (regular pull-up grip) - 85 x 9, 6, 6, 4
Bench dips - 10, 8, 7
Treadmill - 3/4 mile at various speeds and pitches ranging from 3.3 mph/11% grade and 3.6 mph/7% grade. (The small speed differences are bigger when you're walking.) I was experimenting with keeping the Braxton-Hicks at bay (they seemed to subside when I walked a little faster on a lower grade. It might be the other way round. Must continue experimentation)...
Since then, it's been nothing but eating carbohydrate-rich foods and working on crossword puzzles. (Just one, actually, and five days later, we're only about 2/3 of the way through the 1200 clues...) The gym is open for a brief window of time this afternoon, but I may have inadvertently signed on to accompanying a kid to see Twilight. Ugh.
