Football for 1 hour 45 minutes. Actually played pretty well, but was really really tired by the end.

29/10/06

Press Ups (with 12.5kg on my back) 1x10, 2x8
Shoulder Press 12.5kg 1x6, 2x4
Tricep Extensions 10kg 3x10
Calf Raises 40kg (a dumbell of 20kg in each hand) 3x12
Crunches 20kg 3x10
V-ups 3x10

Upped the weights on the second day of my workout too. Could do with weighing myself. I am stronger, but having doubts about whether I am bigger/heavier and whether I am eating enough?

Good lifting Benny

If you are worried if you are eating enough you probably aren't eating enough! Aim for 1-1.5kg of gain every month. If you are not seeing that gain eat more

18/11/06

Football for 1 1/2 hours, pulled my groin I think...

Then joined a gym...so my workout was a bit odd as I tried to work out what discs weighed what, and scratched my head as to what I was lifting at home...it didn't appear to be obvious.

Bench Press 40kg 1 x 10, 50kg 1 x 4, 45kg 2 x 5 (not good, as I said I was getting used to what was what...next time I am going to use the Smith I think as I don't have a spotter.)
Dead lift 50kg 2 x 6, 1 x 3
Calf Raises 50kg 3 x 12
Bicep curls 25kg 2 x 8, 1 x 4 (couldn't remember what I was lifting before and so was a bit off the mark, although it felt good...my form was good I think too as I had a mirror to check it)
Crunches 45kg 1 x 8, 2 x 7 (using some odd crunch machine)
V-ups 1 x 12, 2 x 10 (too much on the above? or just being lazy?)
