It was back to the gym for the 2nd day in a row but this time for a great weights session. Found a great workout on bodybuilding.com for Ectomorph's which I mostly followed today. The only deviation was that I did not adhere to all of the 3 minute rests as I would have been there for nearly 1.5 hours and I dropped the squats. The only time I rested for 3 minutes was before the final set.
Basically it comprises 6 different exercises, 4 sets of each with 10, 8, 6 & 15 reps. I found it quite challenging with that 15 at the end. This is of no use if you are a regular weights trainer or find it easy to bulk but apparently it works very well for those who find it hard to put on muscle, the link is below: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/ectomorph_pyramid_training.htm
Needless to say I had a great workout, and I am sure that I will know about it tomorrow too, which will be good. Managed some decent weights too, not as high as last time but I would have struggled with that final set otherwise. But it worked most of the upper body muscle groups.
Until tomorrow...

That site is so good to show you what and how to exercise for your body type. I forget what I am...so will re-read, and then see what it is that I have to do. So glad you are enjoying the weights again...can only help you. Running with defined muscles....how neat!
