I can now do 3 reps of 20 circular row motions of 25 POUND weights!

:woohoo:

Per day, obviously... two 25lb weights. They don't feel so heavy anymore. AND I've learned how to do it without aggrevating my degenerated spinal column.

I can do this.

I'm my own ABC After School Special, :woohoo: :rofl:

1. Congrats

It's always great to be able to up the weights. :) I've never heard of a circular row..can you describe it?

[Deja Q]

2. I shall attempt to do so.

Pick up the weights. Hold them with the weighted ends up and down. Like a large letter I (roman numeral 1, that is - I wish I could use serif fonts here... :D ).

Now do forward circular motions; the weights going up and down - rather like using your legs on a bicycle except this is your arms doing a similar motion.

It's great for the biceps and triceps. And if I bend over a tad backwards I can feel it in my traps.

But I've to do it gently and very slowly.

But it works.

3. Gotcha

I can visualize it now. Sounds tough (in a good way!) :)

4. Good Job!

I'd never even thought of that!

Since the snow melted I've been walking four miles a day, but nothing for the upper body--I can hardly wait to start paddling in a big way again. It should happen soon (like maybe this nect week :D)

I'm visualizing that exercise and I'm pretty sure I'd have noodle arms after about one set of those.

Keep it up and you'll be the next flvegan in no time! :thumbsup:

5. Keep punching Hypno Toad.

No retreat No surrender. Congrats all the way around.

6. I have no idea what that means, but it sounds disgustingly healthy

Walking a lot is quite enough for me.

Good for you in achieving it, and I hope it does you some benefit. Keep at it !!! :thumbsup:
