Gym!

[tyggerjai]

So I have a new routine, and dr_wally was complaining I never update about the gym anymore. So.

We start with close-grip reverse chin ups. Arms at shoulder width, palms facing in. I can do 1 and a half. Huzzah. That's up from 1 a week ago :)

Incline db shoulder press. Incline a bench back to about 45 degrees, dumbell in each hand, push them straight up to full extension. Lower, carefully. I used to do flat chest presses and vertical shoulder presses - the incline moves the focus to the front of the shoulder, rather than the delts or chest. 3x15 @ 35

Seated Row. 3x15 @120

Reverse flys. "Fly" is the key word here. Sit on a bench with your feet out in front of you, as far as possible. Lean over till your beer gut is resting on your thighs. Flap your arms - with a slightly bent elbow, raise the arms out from your body. 3x15 @7.5. Yeah, 7.5. This is a whole new neglected part of my body I'm working, and thy're harder than they sound.

Tricep Bench dips. Two benches, feet on one, hands on the other, palms facing behind you. Dip. 3x15

Calf raises and leg extensions to keep the physio happy.

And we took more measurements.
Waist is now 108.5 - down another 5 cm. Dunno how :)
Chest is *up* 2 cm :)
Hips are also down a few cm.
Biceps remain static. I suspect I've been neglecting my triceps. Actually, I know damn well I've been neglecting my triceps, which reduces that width of the arm. I'll cope.

So when are you slackers coming lifting with me?
