Lazy's progress journal

This is the first time I've done a progress journal online!

I'l start with where I'm coming from.
I had a very lazy summer 2008 put on a bit too much fat. I did a lot of drinking and eating out and very little excercise.
So just before Xmas I joined a local gym.

185cm and currently about 83kg
Waist to hips = 0.8

GOALS
I'm not so bothered about losing weight but I would like to get rid of some fat
Chin ups (can't do them)
Triceps (definitely some improvement needed there)
Posture (I get a very sore neck cos I'm tall just from Driving and using a laptop so I hope if I make my back stronger it will help)
Most of all I want go to the gym AT LEAST four times a week for the next six months.

I have never been able to stick at serious cardio, running or classes. I am just too LAZY and I get bored. So my exercise revolves around weights.

Typical Routine:

DAY ONE
Legs Abductor and Adductor Machines 40-60kg 3x8 for each
Leg raise and curl Machines
Squat Machine 3x10
Upright row 3x8 24kg
Row 3x8 6kg
One sided bent over row 20kg

DAY TWO
Rest

DAY THREE
Shoulder Press 3x8 30kg
Tricep machine 3x8 8kg
Lying tricept extension 3x8 8kg
Bicep Curls 20kg
Front Raises or Lateral Flys 8kg
Bench press or flys (incline)

DAY 4
20-40min Cardio

DAY 5
1HR Badminton


SO if anyone has any hints, tips or surgestions... I'm all ears!
