Guest Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 (edited) I started my new workout routine today. I was supposed to only do one set of each exercise for the first week before moving up to three sets during the second week. However, I was so happy to get started that I actually got carried away and forgot I should only do one set, so halfway through my workout I suddenly realized that I had been doing three sets of everything. Oh well, I thought, this seems alright so I may as well just contine doing three sets for the rest of it too. HERE IS WHAT I DID TODAY: 1) Thigh extension on leg extension machine 3 sets 12 reps 35# 2) Bench press (using dumbells instead of barbell) 3 sets 12 reps 30# (15x2) 3) Dumbbell Upright Row 3 sets 12 reps 16# (8x2) 4)Double-Arm Reverse Row 3 sets 12 reps 16# (8x2) 5) Straight-Arm dumbbell pullover 3 sets 12 reps 15# 6) Standing dumbbell tricept curl 3 sets 12 reps 8# 7) Standing medium grip biceps curl 3 sets 12 reps 5# on EZ curl bar Abdominal crunches 3 sets 10 reps 9) Flat bench leg pull-in 1 set 8 reps 10) Plié squats with dumbbell 3 sets 12 reps 10# Edited October 20, 2008 by Anonymous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) Later on yesterday evening I felt like I'd had a good workout. Now feeling a little stiff. Edited October 20, 2008 by Anonymous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Yo, yeah I don't see the problem with doing 3 sets right away, good stuff You might feel a bit stiff for a day or so, but that'll pass as you get back into it, and it might help you to do a bit of stretching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
