first 8 weeks (starting in March)

My first program, used it for about 8 weeks starting in mid March



Three days a week * 8 weeks

goals and impressions before I start:
squat at 45- easy, 95 not hard, 145 not sure I can do full range of motion
power squat- easier that it looks
one arm swing- hard work but do able, goal is each arm 3 sets of three at 30 lbs to start
walking lunges- hate, may sub split leg squats instead, one set each leg forward and rear.
glute presses- not sure why I need to do this but I will be a good girl and cooperate
millitary press, not sure how this workws, will consult youtube
partial press- if this is that damn machine...
lat pull downs- 70 lbs and play with bars/grips
reverse fly- good for concentration, actually feels good- 12 lbs each hand, bent over?
overhead squats- will start with bar only
good mornings: need to consult you tube will start with light bar only
leg extensions and leg curls.  yuck yuck yuck
sled- could be fun
farmer's walk.  sounds like work
