Daily Ramblings – Workout Routine – Shoulders

Tags

Deltoids, Front Raises, Lateral Raises, Rear Delt Raises, Shoulder Presses, Trapezoids, Upright Rows

Over the next few days I am pinned to my home. My Mom is away on a trip to Minnesota and since one of us has to be with my Dad (he’s suffering from Dementia), a trip to the gym will be too long. Hence, I hit my shoulders with my exercise bands today.

PM:

• Exercise Band Lateral Raise 3 x 10;
• Exercise Band Front Raise 3 x 10:
• Exercise Band Rear Raise 3 x 10;
• Exercise Band Shoulder Press 3 x 10;
• Exercise Band Upright Row 3 x 10;
• Exercise Band Shrugs 3 x 10;

That’s it for today, folks!

Until next time…

Daily Ramblings – Workout Routine – Compound Sets

Tags

Abdominals, Back, Biceps, Cardio, Compound Sets, One Hundreds, Treadmill

I overslept!! Yeah; I woke up earlier than 6 am yesterday and turned off my alarm. Guess what I did? You guessed right. I forgot to reset my alarm for this morning. So instead of waking up at my usual 6 am, I woke up at 8ish. Oh, well.

I hit the gym this afternoon and knocked it out. Today I chose compound sets for my routine. Here’s today’s back, bicep, and abdominal workout:

PM:

Compound Set:

A compound set is a combination of exercises focusing on one body part. Mine today was on the back. I did 1 set of 10 for each exercise without rest and took my break for about 30 seconds after the three exercises. This is a great routine if you will use the same piece of equipment for all of your exercises.

• Lat Pull Down
• Behind the Neck Pull Down
• Underhand Grip Pull Down

Neutral Grip Pull Down 3 x 10;

Bicep Preacher Curl Machine 1 x 100;

Rope Crunch 1 x 100;

20-minute Cardio Treadmill Hill Program;

That’s it for today, folks!

Until next time…
