Smile This time I'll really do it!

OK...first gym log entry...

Yesterday 2/17/03 was official Challenge One start date -

UBWO
CHEST:
Incline Press:

-12 x 1 plate (gotta find out how much these plates actually weigh! Is it usually 10 lbs each?)
-10 x 1.5 plates
-8 x 2 plates
-6 x 2.5 plates
-12 x 1.5 plates (can't do 2 yet here)
Fly machine:
-12 x 1.5 plates...definitely got a 10 here!

SHOULDERS:
Seated Shoulder Press:

-12 x 1 plate
-10 x 1.5 plates
-8 x 2 plates
-6 x 2.5 plates
-12 x 1.5 plates (can't do 2 here yet)
Lateral Raises:
-12 x 1 plate...this one always hurts so much!

BACK:
Seated Row:

-12 x 3 plates
-10 x 3.5 plates
-8 x 4 plates
-6 x 4.5 plates
-12 x 4 plates
I'm not sure I'm doing this one quite right...I think I hurt myself some yesterday...upper back, between shoulders and down to shoulder blades, is really in pain. Not a good muscle pain, but a "something is wrong" pain.
Lat Pulldown:
-12 x 3 plates...I think this can go up a bit next time

TRICEPS:
Tricep extension machine:

-12 x 1 plate
-10 x 1.5 plates
-8 x 2 plates
-6 x 2.5 plates
-8 x 1.5 plates...Couldn't do more than 8...should I lower the weight and do 12 here, or is it better to keep building up from here?
Tricep pulley extensions:
-12 x 1 plate...Owwwwwww!

BICEPS:
Arm Curl machine:

-12 x 1 plate
-10 x 1.5 plates
-8 x 2 plates
-6 x 2.5 plates
-12 x 1.5 plates...Can't do 2 plates here yet
Pulley arm curls:
-12 x 1 plate...Definitely a 10 here!


Today 2/18/03 was Cardio:
Treadmill
-5 min. warm-up at 0-4 incline, 2.8-3.1 mph
-2 min. at 5 incline, 3.1 mph
-Intervals: 6, 7, 8, 9 incline at 3.1 mph for first two, then down to 3.0 mph for last two. 10 incline for my 10!
-6 min. cool-down at 5-0 incline, 3.0-2.5 mph


That's it! I really like this so far...I think I can stick with it.
