Down to David Lloyds after I met Derek from work. I hadn't had much to eat and was feeling a bit lethargic but went in the gym anyway. My shoulders and chest were still a bit sore from Tuesday, but not too bad. Routine as follows:-

10 mins warm up on treadmill, level 7, speed 6.

3 reps of 12 at 30 kg on back extn.
3 reps of 12 at 22 kg on abs machine.

3 reps of 12 at 10 kg on pec deck.

6 mins on eliptical trainer, level 5.

3 reps of 12 on adductor level 9
3 reps of 12 on abductor level 9.

6 mins on eliptical trainer, level 5.

3 reps of 12 at 16 kg on leg curl.
2 reps of 12 at 10 kg on leg extn.

3 sets of 10 on abs curler doing front, right obliques and left obliques. Then I did front again doing little pulses.

10 mins warm down on treadmill.

Total of 513 cals, 40% FAT.

Next time I'm hoping to do the full range of weights again (the gym was busy tonight and I couldn't get on everything) and hopefully feel a bit more energetic on the eliptical trainer.

I have been reading through my entries for March, when I started going to the gym regularly and I see that I increased things gradually and upped times on cardio machines when I felt ready. I can't expect to start back where I left off in May - unfortunately.
