| Re: - 2008 - Thanks for the feedback.
I worked out this morning at 7AM. My weight is hanging around the low 180's. That is how my body reacts to no training. I am a very light eater outside of bodybuilding. My body just seems to not need a lot of nutrients when not training and I can live off of two meals a day just fine, especially when under a lot of stress. My hand is pretty messed up at the moment - due to punching a bar stool (long story). So, I will be working around that until it heals. As I told Lindsey, it isn't necessarily a bad thing because I will be forced to slow down and not use as much heavy weight right off the bat.
We basically did three sets of incline dumbells. I worked up to the 100's but was in much pain with my hand at that weight. The dumbells at the World's Gym I am working out at are made out of rubber.... which I absolutely hate, but oh well. We then proceeded to a flat bench machine and it felt very awkward so I threw that out after two working sets. Next we moved to a different chest machine and completed three working sets including strip sets. Lastly, we finished on dumbell flyes to get a bit of a stretch.
The workout went OK overall. I believe the first week or two will be slow, but it will certainly pick up intensity and pace as we push forward. I am going to attempt to find my digital camera at my mother's house tonight and snap some pictures. I will post them this evening if I can find it.
