Playing with my new toys

Today, I got to break in my new toys!  I got to the basement to do Fat Loss III B5.  I am sufficiently wiped out!  After 80 squats, my legs are made of Jello.

The equipment worked out perfectly. I'm thrilled!  I liked doing the pull downs on my knees.  I find the position closer to what a chin-up or pull-up would be.  At the gym, I had to sit down unless I wanted to go around swapping bars out with other stations.

It took a total of 1:34 including 12 mintues warming up and foam rolling afterward.  According to SportTracks, I burned around 750 calories!  I think I might be more likely to warm up with this setup, since I won't be worrying if I will be the first to the power cage!
