I am still thoroughly enthralled with the new gimmick of climbing up stairs of monuments in other countries forced upon me by the new Stair Masters. I also remain geekily thrilled with getting to enter my initials in competition with the other Stair junkies. No complaints! Maybe more sleep... Tomorrow is a two job day, and will be a day off from the gym for sure.
What anti-inflammatories do you take Gemme? I usually don't need anything (I have a "sit on my ass" job unlike you) but when I lift too much weight or strain something I use an icey hot medicated stick on pad and find it really helpful at night.

I think your stair master sounds like a hoot! I should try the one at my gym now that I don't live in a third floor walk up. Stairs used to be a regular part of life anytime I did anything. All of the equipment is recent but I don't recall monitors on them. Maybe I'll give it a try in a couple of days, I think the recumbent bike is on the menu until then.
This morning I thought snow shoveling would be the upper body workout, but it turned out to be decorative only for a few hours.
