Ran out of time due to a late wake up
Went pretty well. I think this was the first time I have ever done flat bench with db's, or at least in years. Was heavier than I thought. And after doing those, my inclines were really challenging.
also, with WS4SB, you have a lot more flexibility with rest periods. Under my new regimen, it's 45-60 seconds. That was tough for me.
I look forward to this new program.

No, no mystery, I just have been too lazy to type about the nutritionist. I have had 4 sessions with a nutritionist, who is awesome. Since my first session, my body fat has dropped about 5%. He wants to be add about 20 lbs in the next 12 mos, which is probably more than I want to do, but another 10-15 would be nice. He also wants another 2-3% drop in body fat. We'll see. I just have to remember to eat - it's hard for me to eat that much each day.
He designed a new training regiment for me as well -- very basic: 1) chest/back 2) Arms/shoulders 3) legs 4) Chest/back 5) Arms Each day has about 6 exercises with 4 sets of 6-10 reps.

Hmm, eating a lot. Where have I heard that recommended before?

Richie what's your set/rep scheme on this? Looks all over the board. Were you going to failure?
(PS "Regimen" not "regiment" .... unless this is some sort of military exercise ...  )

send me your bill.
the plan is a bit more complicated with that ... certain percentage of fats, number of meals at certain times, limited number of shakes, etc.

between you and dmw, I really will have to spend more than the 15 seconds I normally do typing. I proofread at work, but not so much on here.
If I do that to much I would loose my mind; their just arent enough ours in the day.

I'm glad you proofread at work. Otherwise, your career would be seriously shortened!
LOL on the last line.

Shurgs are good for a loose mind!
Oh, and I would hope a nutritionist would be a little more detailed than some smart - alek on a message board (namely me).

I doubt anyone would be that interested, and I'd just be there in my fat glory!

Interesting workout. I am very, very sore tonight. Doing squats, then leg presses about killed me. My knee was very unstable feeling during the squats, so didn't push a lot. Not sure what the issue was. and had an embarassing moment with the calf exercises - the station didn't lockout the weights (I didn't lock it out properly) and it fell, sending my flying off backwards on my backside. Hurt and was humiliating.
