Had to get to 3000 on the rowing machine but I flaked out at just around 1600 (roughly 10 minutes)
I did 20 minutes on the bicycle quite high levels majority of the time between the risestence's 10 - 14 and used level 8 to cool down then slowly worked my way down to low levels on my cool down
I attacked my chest muscle today so lifted ___ on each arm - 3 reps of 8 on the bench press. I then moved to the _____ and pushed 60kg again 3 reps of 8. Because I hadnt worked out for a few weeks I couldn't do another chest excercise as my chest got quite weak quite quick. I know im not strong so it will take time to build up my muscle in order to lift more, and higher weights to.
Breakfast - Porridge
Lunch - Garlic Prawn Ceaser Salad with croutons. This was a resturant salad and the ceaser was not caked on - there was a nice amount and mixed in with the salad so there wasnt a huge amount. Drink was a Diet Coke with a packet of Crisp's
