Thanks Tina. Right now I'm taking the Yoga class that's offered for free at my gym and it's enough to get my started. Eventually I may get to the point where I need to seek out a more advanced class.

NROL Strength 1 - Workout D #1
4/14/08


Superset w/ full rest
Chin Up
BW x 6 x 4 sets
BW-82lbs x 12 (assisted pullup machine)

Barbell Shoulder Press
45 x 8
95 x 6
135 x 6
185 x 1
155 x 6
195 x 1 (10 lb PR)
115 x 12

Superset
DB Bench Press
80's x 8
90's x 10

Wide-grip seated cable row
150 x 8
160 x 8

I finished with 20 minutes on the elliptical and some ab work.

Chin ups were never one of my strong points so I decided to do 4 sets of 6 instead of wave loading. I had to push off the ground a bit on the last 2 reps of the 4th set.

I was very happy with my pressing numbers tonight. 185 went up fairly easily, but 195 was one hell of a struggle and I almost failed to lock out my left arm.
