So yesterday's "workout" was a bust... Didn't do anything! So today I hit the weights hard (hard for me anyway, I'm NOT a weightlifter ha ha!) and lifted for strength:

DEADLIFT:

Warmup: 135x7, 135x7

Reps: 225x7, 275x3, 275x3

DUMBBELL BENCH PRESS:

Warmup: 60x7, 60x7

Reps: 70x7, 80x9, 80x2

I had a spot on the 4th set. On the 5th I went alone and was worried I would drop the weights!

PULLUPS:

Isometric Holds, 4 sec down x10, 3 sets

DIPS:

Isometric Holds, 4 sec down x10, 3 sets

This was my first attempt at serious lifting. As I said I am not a regular lifter, so I stayed lighter to get used to it. I need the raw strength as well as the static iso strength so I can squeeze and hang onto people!
