9.24.19 - Starting From Scratch

I've become extraordinarily weak in the last year, during which time I have not worked out at all. So, I'm starting with some smaller workouts and working my way back up to a higher level of work capacity. It would be nice to get back to some semblance of fitness.

Today's workout:

light weight dumbbell shoulder work - #8, #15
5 x 5 shoulder press #25
3 x 10 rows #25
3 X 5 shoulder raises #15
5 X 15 shrugs #25

3 X 10 Air Squats (nowhere near full depth)

I don't have any heavier dumbbells so I'll have to get creative or buy some heavier weights. 

I'm super weak on the air squats so I'll go slow on increasing those, maybe do one or two more sets in my next session. 

Leave it alone tomorrow for recovery unless I want to stretch or something, then increase reps on Thursday. I wish I had some more dumbbells. Once I start on this stuff, the temptation is always there to keep adding reps, keep adding volume, but I need to allow for recovery. I know this.
