Seated Cable Rows - alt. sides - (I don't know the exact name of the exercise so I just put the name as I described them. You could see it in Video)
Set 1 - 20lbs x 12 reps @each - moderate- focused on pulling feom back muscles, not arms)
Set 2 - 20 lbs x 15 reps @each - might want drop reps as left arm started to feel pulling from arms rather back
Set 3 - 20lbs x 12 reps @each - started to feel on arm towards the end
