Week 4

Good news this week! I found a friend who had a work out machine at his house. I made him work out with me so I would have someone to train with. Having a friend work out with you makes the process much more enjoyable. With this machine I was able to work out better because it allowed me to isolate a muscle. The new workouts I did with the machines:

Tricep Curls

Bicep Curls

Lat Pulldowns

Reverse Curls

Vertical Row

Bench Press

Day 1: I did not know my friend had a machine yet

Pushups - 45, 15, 15

Pullups - 3 sets of 7

Crunches - 125

Thoughts: Working out with a friend is really fun because we both push each other to do more. Also it can be a competition which makes you more determined to do more repetitions. I am already sore because of these workouts. I am noticing a slight increase in strength from the beginning. Looking forward to next weeks workouts.
