Gaining power from 'Floravit'

It was a beautiful day today, clear skies in the morning and little wind made it perfect for a bike ride along the back beach! I would love to get a road bike one day, one which i could take to Perth and ride along all the bike paths which go for miles :) But i do like my path in Bunbury around the inlet, through Marlston pass all the cafe's and along the beach. It is exercise but also relaxing and therapeutic looking over the beach.

Am:
* 1 hour bike ride
* Weights - 50kg 3x15 chest pushes, 3x15 back pulls and 40kg 3x10 knee extensions
* Abs - 30 sit-ups, 20 side crunches, 20 medicine ball passes with legs, 2 minute 20 sec plank

Pm:
* Cross trainer 45 minutes - 20km and 1000 calories averaging 27km/hr up to level 14
I'm not sure if the levels are working right, they don't feel different to me hence the large levels!! I need to have a look at the machine.
* 5 minutes on the rowing machine

Meals:
Breakfast - muesli with milk and honey and black tea
Lunch - Carrot, celery and chicken, cheese and avocado multi-grain sandwich
Afternoon - orange, red, green vanilla tea (from T2) and piece of dark chocolate
Dinner - Beef stew with vegetables and a piece of lemon sponge cake (my first ever sponge cake made by yours truly!!)
Supper - green tea

At lunch today i also started taking "Floravit", a liquid which has iron and B vitamins which i have heard lots about. My sister has taken the other liquid "Floradix" which has more herbs in it and was basically bouncing off the walls it was so good for her, she must have been deficient!. So i thought i would give it a go, it would especially be good for me over the semester in College due to the little red meat i eat and will assist my health and endurance for training. It is quite tasty too :)
