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!

Here’s my weekly workout routine:

Home workout:

• Monday – Leg and Ab workout exercise bands.

If any of you are lacking in the home gym arena, check out YouTube. There are plenty of home workouts available there. Keep pushing. Keep working. This will all end and things will get back to normal at some point. Until then, contingency exercise routines will be the solution. Be creative and get it done!

Be safe, pay attention to local authorities, and keep pushing.

See you at the finish line!

Today’s workout:

Arms

Superset 1: 

• Cable Curls 1×40;1×30;1×20;1×10;1×10
• Tricep Overhead Cable Triceps Extensions 1×40;1×30;1×20;1×10;1×10

• Triceps Skull Crushers 1×10;1×10;1×20;1×30;1×40

Abs

• Hanging Leg Raises 5×20

As you can tell, I like supersets. It’s a great way to get a good pump and ensure you hit all the muscle fibers. The higher reps loosen up the muscle and help lift heavier in subsequent supersets.

That’s it for today!

See you at the finish line!

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…
