Had my first workout of the year. I am out of shape, but I managed to get through 2/3 of my plan. I would have been able to finish it, but my elbow started hurting too bad to do more (I hyperextended it last Saturday). Also, my hamstrings tend to cramp when I run, so I need to work on that. I need to stretch more, and I will start doing some exercises to strengthen my hamstrings. Overall, I'm disappointed that I didn't finish the workout as planned, but I worked out and actually enjoyed it, so that's something.
I also took measurements, including my chest, waist, hips, arms, and legs. I don't think my arms look fat, and I've been told I have nice legs (for a guy), which I think is true. I'm a black belt and have been doing martial arts for 28 years, so I've been doing a lot of kicking over the years. I am going to work on building strength and getting better muscle definition. Here are my starting measurements that I want to focus on:
Waist: 44 inches
Chest: 46 inches
Biceps: 13 inches (my right was bigger than my left by half an inch, so that's the measurement I'm using)
I weigh myself weekly, but I'll probably take the measurements monthly.
