Woot, success last night:
Workout 1, A: 2x12
Squats- 45/12, 55/12 (I used the squat rack! Go me!)
Push-ups - bw/10, bw/8 (1st set from a counter, 2nd set from a bench)
Seated Row- 75/12, 75/11
Step-up (step w/ four risers) - 20/12, 20/12
2x10 Prone Jackknife - 10, 10
By the end I was dripping sweat and happy as a clam. Some guy who was busy using all the single-muscle machines actually stopped his adductor work to watch me do my step-up/jackknife sets. Ha.
Question: how does one improve grip strength? I was barely able to hold the 20lb dumbbells by the end of my step-up sets.
