Yesterday and Today

So I need to do yesterday and today because today I did, well, nothing. But yesterday - well, that's an entirely different story altogether. Because I did something.

Strength Training - oh yes, trying to get my 42 year old, skinny-weak ass (with an ever-expanding beer gut) in some sort of physical strength. This, like nearly all of my training, is an on-again, off-again, off-again, off-again, on-again, off-again type of affair. So yesterday, I turned it back into the on position. Here's what I did:

  • 3x20x80lb squats on machine, not free weights
  • 10, 8, 6, 4, 2 assisted pull-ups. They have this special pull-up machine at LTF for weak weenies like me. You stand on an elevated bar which supports some of your weight while you do the pull-ups
  • 3x12x80lb leg press - OK, I overdid it a little on the squats so I wasn't feeling too strong on the leg press
  • 3x10x35lb wood chop on some kind of extension machine
  • 3x15x60lb seated row
  • 3x15x40 hamstring curl
So, not the manliest of weight training. But something.

Today I'm gonna take off. I figure if I can get 5 days in this week (T/W/F/S/S) that will be an accomplishment after the complete and utter laziness I've put on display over the last month or so.

Until next time.
