May 14, 2008
I missed yesterday with menstrual cramps from hell (sorry for the TMI, but it’s true). They’re also invariably accompanied by severe lower back soreness. I’ve been told that getting in shape will help reduce cramp pain — is that true?
Anyhow, today I did arms / torso to make up for it. Still having issues with the abs vs. back thing. Even in those machines that are supposed to stabilize you, (I don’t know if they just don’t adjust to my size, or what), I find my back moves a lot in relation to the pads that are supposed to hold it steady.
Today’s workout:
Tricep dip: 40/15 x 3
Arm Extension: 20/10, 15/10, 10/10
Bicep Curl: 10/10, 10/12, 10/10
Seated Row: 20/15, 25/10, 25/10
Lat Raise: 10/10 x 3
Overhead Press: 10/10, 10/8, 10/8
Chest Press: 10/10, 10/10, 10/8
Torso Rotation: 10/10 x 3 (each side)
Ab Crunch: 30/15 x 3
Back Extension: 50/20, 55/15, 60/10
Plank: 15 sec x 3
