Monday night and I went to Bella again, this time to do some weights for the first time in ages!

Here’s what I did:

Warm Up:
Run: 10 minutes, 1.8km.

Upper Weights:
5 x 2 supersets
3 x 10 reps:
Bench Press : 10kg / Shoulder Press : 10kg
Skull Crushers : 8kg / Lateral Raise : 6kg
Lateral Pull Downs : 40lbs / Dips
Tricep Pushdowns : 40lbs / Bicep Curls : 8kg (too heavy!)
Barbell Bent Over Row : 20kg / Bicep Curls : 6kg
1 x 3 abs circuit
3 x 20 reps:
Push Ups / Gym Ball Jack Knife / Gym Ball Crunches

It was a thought trying to get a free bench, but it ended up I got one ok. And I got all of the weights I wanted (except for the Cable machine for the Bicep curl as it was broken!)

I struggled a bit with the abs exercises, (I used to be able to do 20 reps no bother, now I’m down to 10 or 15 before stopping and starting again). But as I’m just starting back I guess I can only get stronger from here on in. 🙂

It all went surprisingly painlessly, although I have a feeling I may be a bit sore in my arms / shoulders tomorrow!

Upper Weights Wk1: 45 minutes, 6-20kg, 300 calories.
Ave HR: 120 (63%), Max HR: 153 (81%), Garmin Training Effect: 2.1
