Finished Week 1 of Weight Training

Okay, so I can honestly say I feel stronger already. But… There’s always a but. I know for a fact I will not be able to increase my weight on some of the exercises next week, like the barbell rows and the overhead press. I’ll have to go back to the website to figure out what to do if I can’t. The bench press and the squats started so light that I’ll be able to increase that for a few weeks.
My weights on the photos are highlighted in blue and say ME off to the left. For obvious reasons I couldn’t match the recommended weights.

The best part about this workout plan is I don’t have to go to a gym to do it. I did Workout A at home in my own gym. I have bench, with a barbell and about 300lbs of weights. The bench even has dip bars on the back of it. Workout B I had to go to the gym because I don’t have anywhere to do chinups or pullups at home yet. Funny thing is the chin-up/pull-up area at the gym was so high up I couldn’t reach it, so I had to use something else that wasn’t as good. It was kind of in between a chin-up and and pull-up. Weird.

Anyway, I’m happy I made it through week 1. Week 2 starts on Sunday.
