Hotel exercising take 3; Pure and Simple Stretch take 2
Who: Radagast and SO
Exercise type: Weightlifting and the Pure and Simple Stretch video
Details: ~15 minutes of weightlifting (leg extension and bench/incline/shoulder press), followed by the entire video (standing and floor stretches)
Duration: ~70 minutes
Notes: The weight equipment at this hotel was difficult to use; it looked pretty new, but was difficult to adjust for different exercises, and some exercises (e.g. leg curl) were downright painful to attempt because of the placement of the pads.
Soreness report: Still a little sore from the weightlifting on Sunday.

Hotel exercising take 2
Who: Radagast and SO
Exercise type: Treadmill and stairclimber
Details: Radagast did 25 minutes on the stair climber (climbed 960 units), while Radagast's SO did 25 minutes on the treadmill (avg. speed 4.0, inclines ranging from 4-9). Both did a 5-minute cooldown after.
Duration: ~30 minutes
Notes: Radagast figured out how to use the stairclimber, which he has now named the machine of pain and suffering; he was completely wiped out, and covered in sweat, after 25 minutes.
Soreness report: Still sore from the weightlifting yesterday.
The exercise room at today's hotel was somewhat annoying; it connected the pool and hotel, so anyone going to the pool had to walk through the exercise room. A few people decided to ask inane questions, such as "Working out, huh?" and "Having a good workout?"
