Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I've been a dyed in the wool couch potato for 60 years. For the past 3 months, I've been doing 60 full minutes of cardio six days a week at the Y ... eliptical, tread, rowing and bike (for some reason the bike kicks my ...). Usually come home wringing wet but feeling great.
When my doc heard, he seemed so happy I thought he was going to pee his pants. Now he wants me to add some strength training. Just got home after the folks at the Y showed me how to use all of the machines. Did a couple of sets each on machines for each of the muscle groups.
Starting off as a 160 pound weaking and plan to take it slow. They have so many different machines ... I am looking for recommendations about which ones will give me the most bang for the buck, especiallly for my arms, chest and abs. Those seem to be the areas where I have the most potential to build new muscle.
