By now you should be recovered from last week's weight training culture-shock. Although you still might be a little sore, you should be able to plow through today's weight workout with less difficulty than Day 4. Keep in mind you are not weightlifting to add muscle mass, but to build and maintain strength...do you reps in a controlled steady motion and don't jerk the weights.
