Here is the first entry in my journal as I stated I would do when I posted my pic's. First a little more about myself. As I noted on my pic's I am MrBig7's wife and I actually have been training for 12 yrs. I was already lifting due to gymnastics and cheerleading but Terry showed me the correct way to lift and I was instantly bitten by the bug!!!!!! Now 12 yrs and 2 children later (20mths apart- now 2yrs and almost 4 yrs old) I have decided to take it to another level. All input is greatly appreciated. I see how much knowledge Terry has gained from so many people on this site and it think it is GREAT!!
On with the training....... Today: SHOULDERS, BI'S AND TRI'S Shoulders: Side Laterals: 20lb DB 12x10x8 Military Press: 25 lb DB 12x12 increased last set 27.5lb DB x8 Supported Laterals: 15lb DB 10x10x8
Bi's: NOTE: I am working arms twice a week so today 3 exercises with only 2 sets. Preachers curls: 50lb BB 8x8 Hammer curls: 30lb DB 12x10 Inclined curls: 20lb DB 10x8
Tri's Skull crushers: 50lb BB x12 increased last set to 60lb BB x8 2 arm kick backs: 20lb DB 10x10 One arm push down: 15lbs 8x8
Cardio: 30min session, treadmill 4.2mph @10% incline.

Tim, I had to ask Terry for clarification myself They are for the rear deltoids....they are just like bent over laterals but I do them lying face down on an incline bench set at the lowest incline. (HI TIM... This is Terry by the way.. I had to type this so the explanation was understandable.. Hope you can visualize it now.. LOL ;D) ...
