Started with
Body Combat (inc abs work), as I was my usual "too late to do workout before, even though that'd be
way more sensible"!
Totally knackered I decided to do a work out anyway, even if with lighter weights it'd be better than no workout at all - I'm firmly back in "I
need my workout" mode! Rather than concentrating on how much weight I could pull, I focused on form and lifting slowly, as suggested by the PT on Thursday: lift for 8 seconds, hold for 2, return for 4. It is a new experience altogether, I can tell you!
Lat Pull-down: 1x5 @ 15 kgs, 4x5 @ 20 kgs
Chins: 1x5 @ -30kgs, wide grip (thought I'd try it out, but shoulder was a bit iffy with that one), 4x5 @ -25kgs
Upright Rows: 5x5 @ 15 lbs - tried 20 for a couple reps but couldn't keep good form while going this slowly.
YTW's: (you wot?? Lying face down as if doing dorsal raises, with chest off the floor, stretching both arems out diagonally - making the letter 'Y' with your body, then a 'T', by stretching out side ways, then a 'W' holding a position as if you were starting a breast stroke when swimming, if that makes sense)
5x5.
Stretching between sets to encourage my incredibly stiff bod to become a bit more flexible
Outside gym: dog walk x 4 (dogs!)
