- Squat
- Since I'd only been doing 90 lbs (and that while lying down), i figured merely squatting down and standing up would be more than that. So now i do it sans machine.
- Chest Press
- Instead of 80lbs on a machine, I did 35 lbs in each hand with dumbbells. Despite lower weight, this was much, MUCH harder. Did two sets instead of three.
- Deadlift
- Upped the weight to 125 or 135 (from 95, uncertain of total since I don't know how much the new bigger bar weighs). Did two sets instead of three.
- Crunch
- Did actual situps instead of using the machine. 2 sets by lifting legs against an incline, then did knee lifts.
- Seated cable row
- 90 lbs instead of 80. Did two sets instead of three.
- Triceps pushdown
- As usual. Three sets of 60 on a machine.
- Lat Pulldown
- 100 lbs instead of 87.5 - 1 set.
- Overhead press
- Instead of 70lbs on the machine tried two 25 lb dumbbells -- super hard. Did two sets instead of three.
- Biceps curl
- Weaker than usual - same 20 lb dumbbells, but only did two sets instead of three

Day 50
Lifted - variations on my main theme as noted below. Some heavier, some lighter, some on freeweights. I was pleased with the approach and now want to get better.
