This workout was bad. It was just a real mess. I don't think I have been challenging myself enough on the lunges so I am going to jump up to 25 next time out. On top of that the scaptions were terrible but if I go down to 15lbs each hand they are too easy so I am just going to have to keep at it till they get easier. My gym had waxed the floors earlier so all the equipment was away so I had to wait until someone was available to fish out the mats and swiss ball so I could do the second half of the workout so their was a long pause in the resting and I eventually just went ahead and did the bench press in straight sets. The SHELCs felt good I am going to try the one leg version rather then try to balance a larger weight plate on my hips, but the jackknifes were no good. I just don't have the balance or something to get them done right so rather then risk injury I am going to change them to reverse crunches. I believe that should focus on the same muscle area and be a little easier to perform properly (and still be challenging enough for me at the current time)
