I did 5 mins on the elliptical then started NROL Fat Loss 1 tonight. Since I took a week off, I didn't know what kinda shape my body would be in, so I started my weights at approx week 3 of the break-in, especially since this also calls for 3 sets instead of 2 previously. Here's are stats for tonight:

Squat: 3x15@160lbs
Cable Seated Row: 1x15@70lbs, 1x15@90lbs, 1x15@100lbs
Supine Hip Extension: 3x20
Dumbbell Push Press: 3x15@30lbs
Rotational Lunge: 3x15@60lbs (30lbs in each hand)
Swiss Ball Crunch: 3x15

I found the supine hip extensions and the swiss ball crunches kinda easy. Next time should I just increase the reps per set? What about doing the crunches holding a plate on my chest?

I found my grip was the weak link in the rotational lunges. Since the muscles in my forearms are much smaller than in my legs, I'm assuming that my grip will never catch up to my legs. i.e. I won't be able to max out my legs with this exercise as my grip will always give way before my legs. I guess I could do the rotational lunges with a barbell?
