Daily Ramblings – Workout Routine – Week of Oct 27, 2019

Tags

Apple Watch, Bodybuilding, Cardio, Exercise Bands, Full-Body, healthy living, Treadmill

I just got an Apple Watch. Wow! What a great tool this is. Now I can track my heart rate, my steps, and a whole host of activities that I couldn’t before. That being said, my workouts have grown in intensity and consistency since getting this thing for my birthday.

Ok. Here is my workout routine for the week!

Monday – Sunday

Full-Body Workout Exercise Bands will be used to hit 5 strength workouts throughout the day and 1 cardio workout at the gym

• Exercise routine 1 – Squats, Glute lifts, and Calf Presses 3 sets of 20
• Exercise routine 2 – Stair pushups, Triceps Extensions 3 sets of 20
• Exercise routine 3 – Ab crunches, Oblique crunches, Flutter kicks 3 sets of 20
• Exercise routine 4 – Bent over rows, Bicep Curls 3 sets of 20
• Exercise routine 5 – Shoulder presses, Front raises, Lateral raises, Shrugs 3 sets of 20
• Cardio 20 minutes at the gym on a tread mill

I have found these little routines spread through the day should be a great way to keep my metabolism cranked. Since I am doing these every day, I am not working to failure on any sets, just knocking out sets until I get a good burn in the muscle groups I am working.

Have a great week everybody!

Daily Ramblings – Workout Routine – Getting Back to the Gym!

Tags

Bodybuilding, Cardio, Exercise, Full-Body, gym, healthy living, Pilates, Weekly Schedule, Weights

I got the feeling it was pretty boring reading my workout everyday, so I’ve opted to put down my schedule for the week. Feel free to use this for yourself if you are so inclined. This is what I’ll be doing this week, as I head back to the gym. It is a very basic workout, but one that will slowly get my body used to moving some weights. I’ve been out of the gym and doing home workouts everyday to get my habit back, after some inconsistent exercise warned me that I had lost the exercise habit.

Now that the habit is back, it’s time to start crushing the metal again.

Here’s my workout schedule this week:

Tuesday – Thursday – Saturday

• 20 minutes Cardio
• Leg Press 3 x 15
• Bench Press 3 x 15
• Seated Cable Row 3 x 15
• Dumbbell Shoulder Press 3 x 15
• Barbell Curl 3 x 15
• Triceps Press down 3 x 15
• Standing Calf Raise 3 x 15
• Crunch 3 x 15

Wednesday – Friday

• Walk 20 minutes
• Pilates

See you at the finish line!
