Thats a good all round routine!thanks all, I‘m pleased to say I finally got off my ar$e this afternoon and got into my gym. I’ve written up a new weights program, and have set myself a target of doing this twice a week...
Any suggestions or comments on how to improve it? Some of the weights maybe a little bit light, but I want to make sure I don’t pull anything...

Re weights try doing reps of 12, 10, 8,6 with a minute rest between on an increasing weight after each rep (pin machines) and then finish with 2x12 reps with no rest on a pin up basis.
Ideally you should start on a weight that when you increase it 6 times you’re at or close to failing on your final 12.
Pick a weight to start and try it.
Too easy- go up one next time.
Too hard, drop 1.
Make sense?
incidentally I wholeheartedly recommend this book for those who want to make a change. It is excellent and readily available in the Uk.
