Good job, I had to look up renegade rows to see what they were. I think if I were to try those I'd end up falling on my face or something. Maybe I'll give them a whirl next time I'm the only guy in the gym so no one sees me.
You can keep your feet wider apart until you get your balance. They take practice to get the balance down. I thought the same thing at first. LOL
You'll be out of breath and begging for mercy when after a couple sets.
I skipped my workout last night. I feel guiltly.
I'll get it back in gear tonight.
It's ok. I've been out for a little over a week due to illness. It doesn't seem like that long of a time but let's just say I felt pretty humbled today when I was in the gym. Plus my sinuses still feel a little clogged, so that didn't help my breathing.
Three weeks ago I decided to get back in shape. It hasn't been easy but I have made some progress. My waistline went from 34'' to 29''. I went to a clinic for a checkup today and came away with the following results:
I'm still at it. I go to the gym Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. I walk 3 miles at a local lake (this is my "outside" time with my son.) on Friday and Saturday. On Wednesday and Saturday I rest. I started the 4 day diet about 3 weeks ago - I'm not really tracking my weight loss weekly anymore but overall I've lost about 40 - 45 pounds and I'm down to a size 18 (loose) 16 (tight) depending on how the clothes are made. It seems like it's going slow but I'm loving the results. I'm throwing a party when I officially get under 200. I need to post a new pic.
Congrats, I'm sure you're under 200 pounds by now.

Wow, you lost 5" off your waist in just 3 weeks?!
Yes, I did. Progress has been a lot slower lately though, but I can't complain. Before this training I regularly ate a large pizza by myself in one sitting. I went to the buffets 3 times a week and ate up to 7 plates of food each time. I am a small guy with poor genetics. Any fat I have is collected around the belly, which looked like that of a small frame 8-month pregnant woman at times. My goal now is a 28'' waistline. I am able to wear my 28'' small dress pant as of this morning.
Progress at 5 weeks. Me wearing 29'' jeans.
