Back to basic strength training

After my little incident with spinning on Monday, I have been re-thinking my training a bit. While BodyPump is sort of fun, it only works for some muscle groups. And what I did before with the Nautilus method was working all muscles 2-3 times per week. So this morning I switched back to this.
A round on the machines according to this:
Chin-ups (biceps) - 45kg, 12st
Dips (triceps) - 45kg, 12st
Military lift - 40kg, 10.5st (this was very tough)
Shoulder press - 20kg, 12st but the last 2 were ugly
Abs - 25kg, 15st + 10st
Then I sort of repeated all the muscles again on different machines, each time taking one that did not limit my movement. These are harder and mean my arms/legs start shaking all over but they are way more effective.
Honestly, this round of things was very effective. The problem is that I will have to do this in the morning because after work is too crowded.

Hello-
My name is Frank, and I'm writing from Global Ride Productions (www.globalride.net). We make virtual cycling training DVDs for indoor cycling. As a cycling blogger, we thought you might be interested in writing a review of our product. We are willing to send you one of our Italy DVDs, something we sell on our site for $30 plus shipping, in exchange for you writing a review. You don't have to send the DVD back – it’s our thank you for helping spread the word about a new approach to training.
Our virtual cycling DVDs are different from any others you may have tried. We travel to a new country every year, have multiple coaching tracks on every DVD, licensed music, and bonus yoga, pilates or strength training sessions designed for cyclists at the end of every ride. They're a great product and we just want to spread the word.
Also, If you are interested in coaching one of these for an upcoming project, please let us know as well. We are always looking for new voice/coaching talent – the main ingredients are cycling knowledge, enthusiasm and a decent microphone setup. In exchange for coaching, we give you super exposure on our website, in the credits, and even in the navigation menu of the DVD itself.
If you'd like to do a review, or be considered for coaching, just shoot me back a message with a mailing address and we can discuss it.
Please drop me a line if you want the DVD.
Thanks!
Frank
