Week 6, 2nd and 3rd workouts
Here goes! Been a bit busy, haven’t had time to update… Sorry about that.
However, for everyone’s immense viewing pleasure, I have yet another wonderful clip (2nd workout) to show you! And another (3rd workout) is under editing as we write. 
I did, however, notice that the adjustable dumbells I have are NOT standard 28mm (non-olympic) handles, and thusly the shiny new plates I bought do NOT fit on them. Highly annoying. On the flip side; the weights (4 x 5 kgs plates) from the dumbells DO fit on the bar which, of course IS standard 28mm. Not that I’ll be needing them any time soon, on this system…

Very amusing picture. Not sure about over there, but where I come from a Crunchie is a type of chocolate bar and, well, things that resemble said bars
Nice workout, by the way. Slow side laterals. Ouch.

Aha, didn’t know that about crunchies. Crunchie sounds like a cereal brand to me. But I DO know you can “do the crunchie” on the multimachine…
Probably all it’s good for. That’s a picture off the poster that so wonderfully highlights all the different exercises you can(’t) do on it.
And yes, the laterals do hurt, make you shake and shimmy all over the place and so on… You can almost hear the veins popping in your head.
Especially if you’ve picked too much weight like I did, but being the stubborn bastard I am, there’s no way that I could actually lessen the weight, at least not before end of set.
