I started my new program about 2.5 weeks ago. So far so good on the diet. The inches are coming off, but I haven't stepped foot on the scale or checked on my BF%. Here are my STATS:

5'7" without my stilettos
34 years
156 pounds (2.5 weeks ago, but my inches are coming down)
Hispanic (so you guys know I love to eat and can probably out eat you)
Enough slacking, I am back to achieve the body I had in my twenties.

Ok, so here goes nothing:

Monday 8/21:
Chest:

Barbell Bench Press:
1/15 no weight
1/12 1O lbs
1/10 15 pounds
1/8 20 pounds

DB Incline:
1/15 15 lbs
1/12 20 lbs
1/10 25 lbs
1/8 30 lbs
1/16 35 lbs

Peck deck flies:
1/15 30 lbs
1/12 40 llbs
1/10 50 lbs
1/20 30 lbs alternating

Tri's:

Cable pushdown:
1/15 20 pounds
1/12 30 pounds
1/10 40 pounds
1/20 20 pounds

Looking good. Very nice exercise choices.

Look strong, esp. on your DB incline presses.

You did 40 reps on the 50lb pec deck? wow. I would have gotten really bored haha.

GJ!

You are far braver then I! Great post and good routine. The only change that I would make is to do your Skull Crushers first, then pushdowns, then the one arms. Just my personal opinion. Your goals are reacheable since I am now in better shape then I was in when I was in MY 20's. For example, in my 20's, I wore size 32" waist. Now, 31" almost 30"! You can do it Chica!

Thanks lovey... You are sweet!!

My gym is so crowded, I am lucky to grab a machine or station when I can.. then I have some big guy come to me and try to work in... I am in and out 1 hour or so, so whatever I can get in when I get it works for me...

It looks pretty good. Nice stats. So how many days a week do you workout???

By looking at you avatar you BF looks low, I am sure losing that extra bf will not be a problem.!!!!

Good luck Chica!!!!!

Thanks woman.
Like I said it was a bit of work. I had written it down last night, though I mostly remember it all, and then I typed it up. I had a 20oz cup of coffee this morning, so I was pumped.. If you find any typos too let me know..

Yes I caved... Its a bit of work.. I have to keep it written down @ the gym, because I find that I have been building my strength back up but couldn't keep it in my head. The memory is the 1st to goooooo....

PhiSigPhi · #17 (**permalink**) 08-23-2006, 06:32 AM

LoL. Yeah i used to always have to write it down, but after about a year of coming back and typing it on my computer, I just haev to write it down the first week of a new routine

. You'll get the hang of it. Practice makes perfect just like everything else
