Chest exercises - week one
My first proper set of chest exercises since arriving in Australia consisted of:
5 minute warm up run
4 sets of flat dumbell bench press (35lb each), 10 reps
4 sets of flat dumbell flys (30lb each), 10 reps
4 sets of flat dumbell bench press and twist (35lb each), 10 reps
4 sets of decline dumbell bench press (35lb each), 10 reps
Stretch
All felt great and ready to up the weights next week.
Plan for this week is early morning weights on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, along with 2 decent runs (7K+). I need the cardio to burn some excess body fat, but need to up the weights to maintain muscle mass and definition. I’m not aiming for the ‘classic’ runners body. Hopefully this is the right balance.
