Monday Weights Session

Due to my long term problem over the last year or so with a back problem that i have been receiving treatment for by a chiropractor on a weekly basis i have been unable to do any real form of weight training and indeed any hiking

Over the last 3/4 months my daily employment has changed from a purely office bound role to a 70% time involving manual labour with 30% office time , in doing this i have noted that my back has responded better to this than i thought and it has indeed helped start a recovery more can be found on my personal blog here

This is the first weights session for at least 6 months and it was aimed exercising my back and strengthening it etc

3 sets of 15 stiff leg deadlifts
3 set of 15, 12, & 8 Reps bench press
2x12 dumbel shoulder press
2x12 wide grip pulldowns to front
2x15 leg press

Training was hard and slow but enjoyable , legs were trained lightly due to the amount of stiffness caused by running and biking on previous days
