Week 4, Day 1 - DE Bench

Oh it felt SOOOO good to get back in the gym. I had lots of stress from work to clear out of my system, and fustration built up over the week. It was great to get in there, listen to angry music and lift some weight. Its like yoga for me.

So my workout went a little something like this:

Warm Up
back machine
light deadlifts
light bench press
- question....are you supposed to look like a frog when you deadlift? I was looking at myself in the mirror in front of me, and started laughing at myself..lol

-about 30 seconds between sets.

-just trying to find my weights...will stick with 75 lb DB's next time.

Tricept PD's

1 x 12 @ 80 lbs

-hehe still finding the right weight...i'm thinking 90 lbs next time for 10 reps

1 x 10 @ 95 lbs

A few things I noticed today while working out. I am getting more vascular, so the mirror is telling me I am loosing some fat :) So i weighed myself and I am down a few pounds. About 210 lbs now. My diet is working!! I also noticed arching your back is tough!
