Finally Got my GirlFriend in the Gym w/ me!!! WOW

[Fed372]

Ok, Tonight was Legs/Calfs/Triceps. I am getting ready and she says I wanna go. Now my jaw about dropped. But heres where she ended up. Keep in mind she as never lifted before Tonight.

Squat:

3 warm up sets @ 10,5,5 with weights of 45/55/65
3 working sets of 5 reps each @ 75/85/95

Not too shabby

Calfs:

Now keep in mind The way I do calfs is put weight on the bar and hold it and to calf raises.

3 warm up sets @ 10,5,5 weights again where 45,65,75
Then this is the stunner, she did 3 sets of 5 HOLDING 135 pounds!!!

Triceps:
Close Grip B/Press

She is weak here she warmed up with the 3 sets of just the bar and got though 1 set of 10@ 55 pounds Then failed @ 3 reps @ 65 pouns.


NOW here is the kicker Guys!!! shes 5 foot 7 and only 130 pounds!!!! I think she did amazing. LOL

Tomorrow is Shoulders/Traps and Back day, we will see how she does.

That's very cool Fed. Try not to throw too many advanced moves at her right now and keep them simple. I think I'd change the Close Grip to standard bench for her....just my 2 cents. ;)

I'd be interested to see what routine you will have her doing.

But still cool nonetheless!

haha, I wore her out, She woke up today and was like OMG. LOL. I told her. She kept wanting to do more last night but I told her youll feel it in the morning. LOL. AND SHE DID. She liked it.

[RoaringMad Mac]

Yeah, like Rick stated just take it easy on her at first. Let her build up to it. Make it fun. Make it to where she wants to do more. This way she will want to continue working out.

Good Deal though.
