Lifting 33 minutes
Stretching 20 minutes
Will start next week (Saturday). Have to figure out how to work 3 a days.

Smith Bench Press - 60-5-5-5
Flyes (machine) - 70-3-3
Rear Lat. Pulldown - 75-3-3-3
DB Front Raise - 10-3-3
DB Lateral Raise - 10-3-3
Triceps Pushdown - 50-3-3-3
Triceps Extension (someone was hogging the assisted dip)- 15-10-10
BB Curls - 40-3-3-3 (FINALLY!!!)
Concentration Curls - 25-3-3

It was a good workout.

Today was my first day throwing at track. It also happened to be the day they lift, which I didn't know. I basically did a complete upper/lower body routine using the Cybex cable cross machine. They do every exercise listed on the machine. I thought my arms were going to fall off. Then, I attempted to throw. My arms, espeically my left one, the one I throw with, are DEAD!!!

Starting again on Saturday, I've had to adjust my routine as I lift twice a week with the other throwers and don't so can't do my routine the way I have been. The good thing, NO THREE A DAYS!!!! The most I'll do in a day is my workout and track practice or cardio and track practice.

I'm not happy with the lifting I have to do for throwing. It's not that I don't like lifting, it's just that the other two throwers are completely clueless about lifting. They pay no attention to order of lifts, no set time for rest, etc.

I don't want to jeopardize my training and just do theirs, but at the same time, I don't want to be at the gym 2+ times a day lifting either. . . . . .
