Hope you had a good President’s Day weekend. We went to the snow and I threw about 5000 snowballs and trekked up a hillside carrying an inner tube. I hope I burned a lot of calories because I consumed a lot of calories. Oooops. Whenever I could I pretended like I was a some sort of Judo master and tried to throw down my husband in the snow. He thought I was just being playful but I was really trying to get some exercise. He’s stronger than me (duh) so I got a pretty good workout. I’ve been living in southern California for a a while now and I had forgotten how fun the snow can be. Now, I’m back to my routine. I only have 10 more days of my gym membership left until I’m in my garage gym. Since I have access to the machines and I’m paying for them, I’m using them. Here was my workout for today.
A. Seated Row - Drop Sets: 10 reps 1st set, 8 reps 2nd set, 6 reps 3rd set (Add weight with each set. Your goals is to make rep 6 of your 3rd set HARD…the last rep you could do)
B. Jump Squats with Barbell – 3 sets of 20
Perform A-B back to back with no rest. Then rest 1-2 minutes before repeating.
A. Assisted Pull Ups – 3 sets of 6 (Rep 6 being hard if not impossible. I only got 5 reps on my last set.)
B. Assisted Dips - 3 sets of 6
Perform A-B back to back with no rest. Then rest 1-2 minutes before repeating.
A. Hamstring Curls – Drop Sets: 10 reps 1st set, 8 reps 2nd set, 6 reps 3rd set (Add weight with each set. Your goals is to make rep 6 of your 3rd set HARD…the last rep you could do) Okay I actually don’t think these are awesome b/c they are isolated movements but I like them so I do them.
B. Bench Press - Drop Sets: 10 reps 1st set, 8 reps 2nd set, 6 reps 3rd set (Add weight with each set. Your goals is to make rep 6 of your 3rd set HARD…the last rep you could do)
Perform A-B back to back with no rest. Then rest 1-2 minutes before repeating.
10 minutes of HIIT on stepmill. One minute at level 4 alternating with one minute at level 4. Stretching. It took me about 45 minutes.
Have a fantastic day everyone.
