Strength Training Day 2 - But its a good pain

I remember posting long ago, when I first started my workouts about the good pain. Well, I worked out Saturday on upper body, and today focused on my lower body and abs. I am definitely feeling DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness) on my chest and arms today, and as I did some pretty hefty leg extensions, I expect to be in a lot of quad pain tomorrow and Wednesday.

Today I worked out my Quads with Leg extensions to 110lbs, my Hamstrings with Lunges and Deadlifts, up to about 60 lbs. Also worked my calfs with calf raises, one and two legged variety up to 30/50 lbs. I also did a ton of ab crunches, including a couple dozen obliquely.

All in all a pretty good workout being it my first one coming back to lower body strength training.

Lets just hope I can stand up tomorrow.
