Decided to do something for Angela, and bought 8, 10, 20 pound dumb bells. Now I am a happy camper.
Skipped lower body on Thursday, so did both lower and upper today
Lower - morning
(Quads)Step-ups: 12/5# 10/8# 8/10# 6/20# 6/20#6/10# plie squat 12/10#
(Hamstrings) Deadlifts: 12/10# 10/20# 8/20# 6/20# 12/20# 12/20#
(Calves) Angled raises: 12/8# 10/10# 8/20# 6/20# 12/20# single calf raises 12/10#
(Abs) Crunches: 12/10/8/6/12/12 This was the first time I was able to get thru all the crunches
Didn't hit my 10s on anything with weights, but was pretty close. Can't possibly hold on to 25# weights so will slow things down for next time around. The 20# dumb bells are all my wrists can manage (for right now). Legs felt like jello when I was done.
Upper body - afternoon
(Chest) Flyes - 12/5# 10/8# 8/8# 6/8# 12/8# DB bench press 12/8#
(Shoulders) Side raises - 12/3.5# 10/3.5# 8/3.5# 6/5# 12/3.5# Bent over raises 8/2#
(Back) Pullovers - 12/8# 10/8# 8/10# 6/10# 12/10# 6/10#
(Triceps) Extensions - 12/8# 10/8# 8/8# couldn't do any more
(Biceps) Curls - 12/8# 10/8# 8/8# 6/10# 12/8# hammer curls 12/8#
Remarkable improvement since starting and finding 3 or 5 # weights heavy. Pleased with new weight limits for lower body. Shoulders need more work to get past the baby weights. Shoulders and upper arms are very sore already.
Time for a protein shake and some relaxing, cuz I'm gonna feel this one in the morning.
