KinkyS Aug 2008 8:19pm, 4 Aug 2008 14,184 posts	0 KinkyS Thanks Ian:-) But I am only doing girly knee ones for now to keep it manageable, the plan is 6 weeks of girlie style, a week off to recover then start again doing big man ones, cos I is a big man really LOL!
Johnny Blaze Aug 2008 8:29pm, 4 Aug 2008 542 posts	0 Johnny Blaze 37-29-29-23-23 This was a surprise as I am aching all over the shop at the moment. I thought I would prob jack it in half way through the first set but I knocked it off ok. Then the rest went ok too so something must be working. I think press-ups are definitely one of the flashier exercises to do in the gym :-). But not as flashy as dips or pull-ups. After pressups did some bicep curls - finally figured out a way to do them without putting my left forearm out of whack. So all in all a good sesh pour moi!
