my first workout
Monday, May 19th, 2008Morning everyone.
Just letting you all know how my first workout went. Enjoyed it on friday, really helps if you have written down infront of you what you are doing! Saves time wandering about and getting bored!
I only did 16 sets on chest - Incline bench (4 sets), flat dumbell press (4 sets), incline flyes (4 sets) followed by burning out press ups (4 very hard sets).
Then i did 8 sets on biceps - 4 sets of barbell curls followed by 4 sets of hammer curls.
I managed to do it all in under an hour which is really streamlining for me! I wrote down all my weights and reps as well, so can get straight into it next time. This regime is going to last for 4 weeks then i change it slightly.
I didn’t think i had done that much but when i woke on sunday ( 2 days after) my chest was killing! A bizarre self satisfying pain ( you guys out there know what i mean, you are killing but it’s great cos you feel like you have really worked your muscles and you feel pumped).
Cycled to work again this morning. Trying to put the bike in a really high gear all the way to get the lactic acid in the legs. Ends up a pretty tiring cycle that way and helps to work my legs. Since starting to cycle to work about 5 weeks ago my girlfriend mentioned the other night she thought my legs had grown and they were more toned! RESULT!
Looking forward to tonight’s workout… gunna smash it in! will let you know what i do.
