re these weights used? How many reps are you doing? Looks like a few too many sets to me but then again I use a less is more high weight/low weight approach with my weight training programs. I am on Spark people as Sergeant Major in your team and also have a team, Resistance band and bodyweight training

Hi, Rich! I recognized your name!
I'm doing Body For Life, so for each body part, I do 12 reps at the lowest weight, 10 at the next, 8 the next, and six at the highest. Then 12 reps at the second highest, and 12 reps with a different exercise for the same muscle group. I hope that makes sense.
