Back to the Start

Liking this part of warming up with a GPP sort of exercise. Will look at how we can add a few more over the next few months.

Barbell Shoulder Press with Chain per side. 3 x 10 @ 32.5kg

Was able to set this up so that the chains fully deloaded at the bottom and reloaded at the top. Felt really good. Would be interesting to see how this works with more weight and chain. Good reps even though the weight is still light. Will be putting it in a few more times over the next year.

Lat Raise. 3 x 10 @ 5kg

Used the same weight as last week, However I am still working on getting more strength back into my left shoulder. This is a real mental challenge and something I am going to have to work hard on over the next year.

Bentover Lat Raise 2 x 10 @ 4

Again same weight as last week and for the same reason as above. Feels good and I can do the exercise easy it is just making sure the right muscles work.

Dumbbell Shrugs 3 x 10 @ 20kg

Same weight as the week before but a lot more control over the weight on each rep. Got to restrenten the neck muscles somehow. Pretty easy so might go up to the next weight next week.

Barbell Curls 3 x 10 @ 20kg

Getting better  at these since having not done them for so long. I have got good control on both parts of the exercise.

Reverse Crunch 3 x 10 @ 48kg

Now that the body has got use to moving started putting these in to help strengthen up around that area as again I have not done a lot for a while. Was a little surprised at how strong I still felt around that area.
