Day 99

Today was my first day in getting back into weight training in over 8 months. The emphasis of the workout was to focus on Chest and Back, and picking 3 exercises for each muscle.

THE PLAN:
Chest
Decline Dumbbell Press (4 sets 8-10 reps)
Incline Dumbbell Press (4 sets 8-10 reps)
Seated Flyes (4 sets 8-10 reps)

Back
Lat Pulldowns (4 sets 8-10 reps)
Seated Rows (4 sets 8-10 reps)
Hammer Rows (Hammer Strength Machine) (4 sets 8-10 reps)


ACTUAL WORKOUT: Sets & weight used: (1 2 3 4)

Chest
Decline Dumbbell Press (40 45 45 50)
Incline Dumbbell Press (35 40 40 --)
Seated Flyes (20 20 25 30)

Back
Lat Pulldowns (80 90 100 100)
Seated Rows (80 90 100 --)
Hammer Rows (-- -- -- --)


The problem I ran into was that I started off with too heavy of weight, and my muscles began to fatigue, next time I must begin with lighter weights and work my way up, on some occasions I did not complete the original plan. It is not that I gave up on myself, its that its only day 2 of giving a 1% effort daily, and I will make up for it at a later time. Must be SMART!!!
