Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below Was hell bent on starting earlier but realized I had too much too absorb. I guess I've sort of started already but just going through a couple of run-through work-outs showed me how much I had to get used to and some of the old habits that I need to break. I see a lot of good feedback going on here and am looking forward to working.

off to a fair start but already see where I need to improve.
Friday, 8 Feb
Mach Flat Prs 50x20, 70x12, 90x8, 70x10
Low Inc DB 20x20, 35x12, 40x6, 25x16
Cable Fly 25x20, 35x12, 45x8, 30x15
Mil Prs 20x20, 50x12, 80x5, 60x7
Straight Bar PD 15x20, 25x12, 40x11, 30x15
One Arm Press - missed - diaried for next workout
I'm better able to concentrate on some movements and miss on others. I need to keep reviewing proper form so I don't sacrifice it for too much or too little weight.
Missed Saturday - spotted problem in schedule
Sunday, 10 Feb
Lat PD Fr 50x20, 80x12, 110x7, 88x14
1 arm row 25x20, 35x12, 50x8, 40x11
Shrugs 20x20, 30x12, 40x12, 30x14
Side Lat 20x20, 35x12, 50x10, 40x15
Bar Curl 30x20, 40x12, 50x10, 40x12
Rev Curl 4x20x20
Having trouble with one arm rows. I'm not feeling the muscle contract and the focus. Could be machine trouble? Its a row machine with independent arms probably most usually used with both arms.
Using lifefitness side lat - find it easier to be able to really focus and work the shoulders.
Setting cardio at 22 minutes to make sure that I get at least 15 minutes at working level.
Discovered a gym problem today: 8,000 square feet and only 1 plate loaded curl bar! The fixed weight curl bars are only in increments of 10 without any plate-mates or other adjustables. I'm thinking about adding an alternative gym anyway to solve the equipment problem and the workout timing (2nd gym close to home with much more and different equipment- other close to work).
Nutrition/diet is a disaster! I'm very well read and practiced but its been a while since I've counted these ratios. My little indulgences turn out to be a great delusion.

xSome movements take 3-4 workouts to click. If you dont feel it soon we can alter your rotuine. Most thing take some practice

x15-20 minutes is enough, because by the END or your workouts your central nervous system is already elevated and you are to a degree depleted. Thus cardio post workout in a burst is SUPER effective

xDiet can be a disaster when you take true inventory
we have all been there
