yeah, because I'm not doing power lifting and not going anywhere near my 1RM's for the exercises, I don't need as much rest between sets :)

Does anyone keep track of their workouts? I have been using the app Jefit since the start. Great motivation to see where I was at etc. Also you can put in a timer in between sets to keep you from slacking off.

going old school, physically writing it down :)

 

it's definitely a good idea to keep track. An app is an easy way to do that. I just have my workouts memorized and don't necessarily keep track in that sort of way.

Yea all my workouts are memorized too, I just love seeing the graphs and stats attached as well. It's definately a great motivator seeing your past lifts.

Same with weight loss. I've got a good looking graph from myfitnesspal where I lost 10kg or so then slowly put it back on in the form of (mostly) muscle.

sounds good puffwagon,

 

smashed the gym this morning, feeling great now!

 

3 sets of 8-10 reps of everything (weight is all up including bar)

50kg bench press, 12.5kg dumbell incline press and db shoulder press, 5kg seated db lateral raise, 12.5kg barbell front raise, 20kg ezy bar bicep curl, 9kg seated db bicep curl to finish up (was farked by this point)

 

I do a little warmup for 20 minutes but not counted cause I was moving at snails pace hhaha.

 

I might check out the app kink mentioned or one similar as I currently reference a photo of my workout that was written up by a trainer so something more useful could be good.
