I work out at home. I have a smith machine , adjustable bench w/leg attachment, seated calf raise machine, Olympic barbell/weights , ez curl bar and a couple of adjustable dumbbells. Oh and my trusty stationary bike. I slowly add a few things as time goes by. I am going to start buying like a pair of solid dumb bells every month or so. It is amazing how much time is wasted changing plates on those dumbells.

I like working out at home better than the gym. No waiting for weights or machines don't have to drive 25 miles to the nearest gym.

Where do you work out at ?

Hmmmmmmm , so I'm not the only one who hears food calling their name . It's probably better for a banana to yell at you than special dark hersheys kisses . They are banned from my house now.

Home. I have a decent set up but I might get a 24hr fitness membership here soon. (Cardio and Basketball!! )

Are the adjustable dumbells any good? Been thinking about possibly getting some. How much did it cost you and what weight setup do you have for them?? Are they bulky to work out with??
Thanks!!

The adjustable dumbbells are ok except for the hassle of changing the plates between sets. But I use that to my advantage . The amount of rest i take between sets is the time it takes to add/remove weight.
I bought mine at Wal-mart so you know they are nothing special. I have loaded them up to 50 lbs each so far but i imagine you could go heavier .

Oops I was thinking about the adjustable square/rectangular style. Sorry. But those you bought at Wally's World works ok for you then. That might be a route I need to look at. Do you use the standard weights or olympic style??
Thanks!!

Today was an off day. No diet , no workout. Spending some time tweaking the diet ( some different foods for variety's sake ) and the workout.

Stopped at Play it again sports and got a couple of cable attachments and a set of 35 lbs solid dumbells.

Hey Jill !

Well according to the scales I lost another lb. ! LOL I laff 'cos I am getting to the point where I don't place much faith in the scale or the tape measure or the fat calipiers.
the fat caliper reading was the same or within 1/2 a mark less than last time and as far as the tape measure goes ... It seems like every time my wife measures me she comes up with something different. She'll call out a number and it will either be 1/2 " less than last time or 1/2 " more. Then I shake my head and she asks "what was it last time ?" and I'll tell her and she will measure again until she gets a reading that is close . LMAO. So I am to the point that I am just going by how I feel and what I look like in the mirror.

Maybe for my Birthday I will go to the closest gym and have a "professional" measure me .

How are you coming along ? I saw you were thinking about goin to a trainer there in Edmonton.

Thanks for stopping in ! You are always welcome.

Matthew,
yes this is my first set of solids. They have their advantages and disadvantages I guess. I like it that (if/when I have a large set of them) if i want a different weight i can just set one down and pick up what i want. But that will require a rack or take up more floor space for storage. The adjustable take up less room but take up time in changing from one weight to another. Adjustables are probably less expensive.Adjustable one can be dangerous in regards to how they hold the plates on. The one I have has a screw on colllar which i like for safety. I have seen some with collars that slide on and have a screw that you tighten into the bar. have used these before and it was possible for them to come loose and weights fall off the bar !

Any way I would prefer all solid if i could . I might even be interested in something like this if i could win the lottery ! LOL

Todays workout

Bench Press
160 lbs x 12 reps
175 x 10
190 x 8
205 x 6
160 x 12
Very pleased with these sets ! I checked and I haven't done flat bench presses for 5 months !!!! And I started back up at weights that are heavier than the last time i did them. 5 months ago I was using 180 for 6 reps.

Incline Dumb bell flyes
37.5 lbs x 12 reps
42.5 x 10
47.5 x 8
52.5 x 6
37.5 x 12

Seated barbell press
100 lbs x 12 reps
110 x 10
120 x 8
130 x 6
100 x 12
Didn't need to cheat on these sets like last workout. Strength is coming back. Must of had a bug last week

Upright rows
75 lbs x 12 reps
85 x 10
95 x 8
105 x 6
75 x 12
This is another exercise I haven't done for about 5 months and did better on today than the lasttime I used it !! Only 5 lbs more per set than 5 months ago but heh, I like it !

Triceps pressdown
62.5 lbs x 12 reps
67.5 x 10
72.5 x 8
77.5 x 6
62.5 x 12
Even these went smoother today. I bought a revolving bar to use for pressdowns at Play it again sports and it seemed a lot more of a fluid movement than using the solid bar. Will increase the weight used in this one next workout .

Overall really good workout ! Other than the fact it took longer than usual. Took some time to get into a pattern with the 2 "new" exercises

Diet info later after I finish my meals .
