Thanks, Alisa!

I did my chest & back yesterday night, too. I know strength isn't supposed to be right after the alactic workout, but with my schedule, I figured it would be okay doing an upperbody strength then.

I did the chest & back workout last night, at home. I think I'll do the chest & back at the gym from now on. I need either the cable machine or the assisted pulldown machine to do my back as well as I like. I did a modified pullup yesterday using my doorway chinup bar and balancing my feet on a stool out in front of me, but it wasn't very steady or satisfying as an exercise.

A1) BB Bench Press - 2 x 6 ~ 50lbs, 3 x 6 ~ 55lbs
A2) DB Chest Flys - 5 x 8 ~ 2 x 15lbs
B2) Modified Pullups - 5 x 5
B2) DB Bent over Row - 5 x 5 ~ 2 x 20 lbs

Those weights can come up next time. I was keeping them low to make sure I wasn't overdoing it.

I'm stiff today, but in my lower body mostly, I'm assuming from the DVD workout I did Thursday. I didn't expect it, but there you go. My core class for today was cancelled when I got there, scheduling conflict at the class location, just as well, I needed a day off with for the stiffness.
