FINALLY....Back in the Gym

After 4 days off because of female issues (grrrrrrrr) I hit the gym again last night to start my new workout cycle. I have added new exercises, changed some and moving more to the free weights. YAY!!! But most impressive...my back. DH took pics (above left) for the before stuff in late January (2006) and on March 2nd he took pics (above right) of my back for me because I could not "see" it. Wow ! That ick around my waist is almost completely gone and I am actually seeing definition in my back in less than 40 days...WHOOP.

So here is my workout from last night (Monday): Chest and Back:

Chest Press - well I moved to the Free Weights/Barbell and am still real nervous about holding a bar with weights over my face/chest so I went easy to get used to free balancing the bar.... Wus weight I know but I will add more next time....

45 x 6 x 1; 40 x 8 x 1; 40 x 5 x 1

Dumbell Fly: Another knew one for me and in the free weights so I went easy on it too...I will get over this fear of the weights over me.....

10 x 10 x 3

Back Row - ALL NEW WEIGHTS YAY!!!!!!

90 x 8 x 1; 95 x 6 x 1; 100 x 6 x 1
