...tonight and boy, did it feel good! I'm really glad I waited until I was back to full health before training again, my weights were mostly the same as last time but my reps improved on most of the exercises. It was quite funny training in vest and knickers, seeing Mr JAG standing behind me trying not to letch while I was doing my squats lol!
My weights, with the reps I did last time in red:
Squats: 25kg - 12, 12, 12 (12, 12, 12)
Good Mornings: 35kg - 8, 8, 8 (25kg - 12, 12, 12)
Barbell Row: 30kg - 8, 6, 6 (8, 6, 6)
Barbell Bench: 25kg - 12, 8, 6 (8, 6, 6)
Upright Row: 20kg - 8, 6, 6 (8, 6, 6)
Tricep Extension: 15kg - 6, 6, 6 (6, 6, 6)
Bicep Curl: 15kg - 10, 6 - only did 2 sets as arm hurt (8, 8, 6)
I need to increase my squat weights next time as 25kg is just too easy. Going to go up to 35kg and see how I get on. I was really pleased to increase my good morning weights - they are one of my favourite exercises. I only managed two sets of bicep curls as barbell curls really hurt my left arm - I'm going to switch back to dumbbells next time.
I suspect I will be suffering with some DOMS over the next couple of days but Mr JAG & I are hoping to get out for a trail run over the weekend. We've both really missed running - me because of my illness and Mr JAG because he is not getting home in time to run before it gets dark and he can't run the roads because he suffers with his knees. So, we are both really looking forward to a nice leisurely run through the nearby woods at the weekend.
Food has been amazingly delicious today though my fat intake has been higher than I would prefer. I'm not overly fussed though as I have managed a day of good food with no junk - hurrah!

That's all really positive; it must be great to be back now that you're healthy again :)
I'd love to get my hubby to gym with me (or at least perv at my while I gym ;) ), but he's not done any weight training in a long while and has a knee injury at the moment so needs to be a bit careful. Also, our track record of training together hasn't been great 'cause I just get really despondent that he's so much better than me at cycling and running, I can't keep up without going hell-for-leather and ending up utterly dead and cross. Our last attempt at swimming went pretty well though :)
Still, let's see what happens when the knee is all better!
