My doctor cleared me for the gym tonight. Yay! So here’s the workout. All exercises are 3 X 12 which is 3 reps of 12 each.

Flat bench dumbbell press – a paltry 10 pounds but the goal is no more injuries.

Incline Press machine – 40 pounds. Yay!

Dumbbell fly again only 10 pounds but it was done on the pilâtes ball, and again goal is no more injuries.

Seated overhead shoulder dumbbell press 10 pounds on the ball.

Standing upright row again with 10 pounds. Bah, but I’ll get to go back tomorrow because I behaved myself.

Lateral Raises – 30 pounds. Yay! But I felt those. It’s always been a weaker exercise for me.

Standing cable press downs – 20 pounds.

Triceps kickback – Again a paltry 10 pounds, but I have to remember I just got cleared by doc to hit gym again this afternoon. So it’s all good.

I also did 15 minutes on treadmill and that’s still more than I’ve been able to do in nearly a year. So happy there, too.

We also did stretching exercises with the foam rollers after treadmill and before the weights.

Abs: crunches again 3 X 12 just with no weights. Bicycle crunches with leg extensions 3 X 12 per leg so 24 at a shot. I felt those after this long a break.

One ab machine: can’t remember what its called. It’s the twisty one. *shakes head* Can’t remember.
