Stage 1 wo B

Deadlift 2x15@20kg- took a while to try and get form right. Felt like an idiot looking at the book then in the mirror, but I think I got it in the end.
DB Shoulder Press 15x2@5kg-In the second set about half way through I realised I'd actually picked up 7.5kg for my right arm. doh!
Lat pulldown 1x10@35kg
1x14@30kg
Lunge 2x15@5kg - hate lunges sooo much.
SB crunches 2x8@BW
Today I am really sore. Butt is sore and near my arm pits is sore.
I don't have the courage to track my diet just yet because I know how horrendous it is.
I have a question: When recording the weight you lift do you factor in the weight of the bar or do you just go by the plates? I think I was using a 6 foot bar but I didn't bother to see how heavy it was.

ps. A big thank you to Dirty Martini for mentioning this program on another forum.
pps. I'm not going to translate numbers into pounds, you can all look up an online conversion like I have to!
