It's not going to be as interesting as Ande's but I realized when I was powerlifting 10 years ago that this is the best way for me to track and evaluate my progress so here it is.

6am gym workout
10min treadmill, .72 miles
Barbell Squat - 45x10, 95x10
Leg Extension Machine - 35x10, 65x10
Leg Curl Machine - 35x10, 65x10
Front Lat Pull Down - 50x10, 90x10
Bent Over Barbell Rows - 45x10, 85x10
Rope Crunches - 90x20, 130x20
Leg Lifts - 20, 20
Push Ups - 15,15
Yes, it's pretty basic and yes, it's pretty light but it's been 4 years since I've done any weight work. Found myself ready to do a lot more weight and sets than just ease back into it but I squashed that feeling and stuck to the planned workout. The only exception was the push ups, I found that I banged out the 10 without much effort at all so decided to go 15 instead. Now I only have 2.67 more weeks of this 'crawl before I walk' routine.
