OK, folks. Here is the lockdown workout for the week.

Monday – Wednesday – Friday – Upper Body workout (exercise bands).

Tuesday – Thursday – Saturday – Lower Body workout (exercise bands).

If weather permits, I’ll get some walking in for cardio. If not, I’ll be using the family supine bicycle.

If you are having a hard time with transition to the home for your workouts, check out YouTube. There are hundreds of them. You can also check out Bodybuilding.com for more ideas. Kagedmuscle.com is also a great site for home workouts, but I’ll warn you, this site is for senior/experienced lifters. The workouts are brutal. I have warned you. HaHa!!

See you at the finish line!
