Even though I'm limited in what I can work on with my upper body I'm slowly building up some things to just get in a little bit better shape then I am now.
Working on my triceps mostly on the pectoralis major and triceps. This I have been doing daily for the last 2 weeks.
Like losing weight this is a slow process I cant do my old school workouts I did when I was in the gym for hours and hours every week when I was 17-18 years old.
So today I dug up my old dumbell that I still had, it's just a 15kg/33lb… See More
dumbell.
Took the wise decision to start light with it so I took off some weight and started with 9 kilo bicep curl, 2 sets 10 and 6 reps.
1 set of overhead longheaded tricep, 10 reps, but only 6,5kg (trust me lifting it behidn your neck above your head is harder then in front of your body)
I'm not trying to get buffed like I was back in the days, but I need to work a little on musscletone get rid of the flabby parts so to speak
I just finished this and my musscles are glowing, so they're active, full of blood. I'm going to try to to this at least once a day the next 7 days and look how especially my right shoulder will hold up.
When my shoulder screams PLEASE STOP TORTURING ME... then it's time for me to tone it down a little bit then I know what the limits are and what I can work with.
After 7 days, I will do nothing for 2 days and then build it up again and slightly increase weight from week 3.. nothing much.. just WANT to work on myself.
But now.. today is my cheat day instead of yesterday, so I'm going to carb load myself and get ready for a busy week!

Sounds like you have been working hard to reach some awesome goals in weight loss, and now some muscle build up That is great. I try and push myself the best I can on things. Just don't hurt yourself and I hope you get to your goals!

I have a pair of 2kg dumbbells here, great for building tone as you can sit and watch a movie or something and just work with them at the same time.
I don't actually use them they were bought for my wife to use but sadly she never got the chance so they are just sitting here.
