Just got my new Gold's Gym XRS20 weight-bench over the weekend. I didn't want to spend the money on a 300lb. weight-set this weekend, so I figured I would use my neighbors temporarily until I can afford to buy a bar and weights. Even though I really didn't use the bench, it felt great to actually lift some weights...seeing it has been years since I have. Here is what I did tonight:

Bent Over Rows - 25 total reps - 5-6 first set.
5 sets of 5 at 95lbs.

Dips - 25 total reps - 5 first set
5 sets of 5

Split squats - 25 total reps - 5-6 first set. ( I went pretty light because I want to be able to walk tomorrow)
5 sets of 5 - each leg

Didn't want to overdue it on the first night....
