Dusted off the weights in the basement
Yeah, I know… poor, neglected weight bench with all the goodies has just been sitting in the basement collecting dust. I cleaned everything off and made sure it was in working order. Found my gloves and belt but I’m missing the bar! How am I supposed to do anything without a bar? Looks like a shopping trip to the super sports store for me to pick up that item and a few other things, like some dumbbells in weights I don’t currently have.
I even found my two trophies from the contests I was in 20 years ago! I forgot how big they were!!! Dusted off those babies and put them on a stand where I can see them while I am working out. Then I put up a pic of myself from my contest days as inspiration that if I did it once, I can do it again!
Started out seeing what kind of exercises I can do with what I have at home right now. Got a good chest workout but not so good on the back without a bar or cables for rows. Looks like I could use a chin-up bar for lats, too. Anyway, did that for an hour and felt good about getting a start on my new mission in life.
