I tend to just arbitrarily paste some random bollocks into the box below this one and then re-use what I'd typed before without giving it enough thought.
This will change - well, when it comes to training that is.
I need to get more disciplined and perhaps start posting entries *specifically* about my training rather than:
"a bit of waffle
ooh I did some exercise
more waffle
ooh look what I ate too
more waffle still"
maybe I should have pure-waffle and waffle-free posts? :-D
plus I want a label cloud, where can I get one of those?!
Ahh... genius, here it is thanks to Phydeaux3!
God I've got waaaaaaay too many labels!!!!!!
Right, have configured it so that the minimum number of labels 'mentions' must be 2... the list was ridiculously long - that's better :-)
anyway, as I trained today on way to work (at the gym that is, I wasn't lifting dumbbells on the tube!) today's post has the appropriate labels applied :-)
Here's what I did...
Please bear/bare(?! what is it, I can't spell today!!) in mind that
a) I am muchos weakos having not done any sort of consistent upper body work for a while due to being a combination of ill/busy/injured (though not always all at once)
I know it's a poor excuse but I'm doing something about it okay?!
Important thing is that my eating has been very good so I've not piled on any weight - I just need to train better, get stronger and feel good about my body!
b) I've actually decided to lower the weights anyway. Just because I can lift heavier than quite a few men in my gym, it doesn't mean I *should*. And, being constantly witness to poor technique and clueless people at the gym it's made me quite aware of my own failings!
So I'm going to work with lighter weights and take my time and perfect my form :-)
This morning was a shoulder session, I did
Seated Shoulder Press - dumbbells (2 x 8kg) - 3 x 10 reps
Upright rows - dumbbells (2 x 8kg) - 3 x 10 reps
Front raises - dumbbells (2 x 4kg) - 3 x 10 reps
Exterior shoulder rotation - cable - (2.5kg) - 3 x 10 reps
Interior shoulder rotation - cable - (3.75kg) - 3 x 10 reps
actually wanted to do more but I ran out of time so had to leg it to the office!
So there you go, two posts in one day, aren't you a lucky bunch!!

Dont you have a job?
ReplyDeleteHA Kidding - Just wanted to say that blogs are all about waffle, keep it, just try and keep it more fitness related rather than petite bourgeois accounts of you and your partners/Son/Mother's life.
I want to read more about the diet plans and training - glad you pulled the weights down - I made the same mistake when I wanted rid of my lard- turning myself into a man!!
Its cool though it will all disappear in a month or two on the lower reps.
I'm going to start working much harder on my upper body. Need some balance!
