Monday - 1st day of 5k Training

So today I started the 5k training program out of that magazine that I got the last Friday. I will have to say that running at a 1% incline is killer, but I did make it through. Since I was running 2 miles today, and I wasn't able to go to the gym until later this evening, I only did biceps. Here is my workout as follows:

Seated D-Bell Curls:
1x12 w/ 15 pound
1x10 w/ 15 pounds
1x4 w/ 20 pounds, 1x4 w/ 15 pounds (I tried to do as many as I could with the 20 and then I immediately switched to 15 pounds when I couldn't do anymore of the 20's)

Preacher Curl:
1x12 w/ 20 pounds
1x10 w/ 25 pounds
1x8 w/ 30 pounds

Seated Hammer Curls
1x12 w/ 15 pounds
1x10 w/ 10 pounds
1x8 w/ 15 pounds

21's w/ Barbell
1 set w/ 20 pounds
1 set w/ 30 pounds

2 Mile run at 1% incline:
1st mile at 5.0 mph
2nd mile at 4.5 mph

I actually took my 14 year old niece through the biceps workout today too! She has decided that she also wants to get into shape and lose weight. I hope that you continue to do so!! She's doing a great job already. But I just want to reiterate to everyone out there, that you have to make changes to your diet or you won't see much change to your body. 75% of weight loss is diet while 25% is exercising. So to be successful, remember to watch what you eat!
