Bought some new weights yesterday, on leave for 6 weeks, hoping to improve a little by then.

Looking a bit 'daggy' (that's Oz for a 'bit ordinary') but had just been throwing weights around

Any advice for an old chick welcome ....

Thanks Bearso

The pic's only there so that I don't lose motivation and end up looking worse in 6 weeks than I do now 

I might put up one at three weeks and then one at the end to see if there's been an improvement.

Fingers crossed 

I only have dumbells for now. I really should get a bench press, and maybe go all out and purchase a squat rack (whatever you call it).

Just having some more equipment would make it more enticing, resulting in more consistency.

Yeah that's why I got my bench.....bought it a month or so ago.....cos unless you get to a proper gym regularly (which I could do cos there's the army gym just up the road about 3 miles, although working out in my underwear there probably wouldn't go down well ) then you need 'equipment' at home.

Still I'm gonna need even more weights soon, but they're pretty expensive I've found.
