Bodyweight workout, Exercise Bands, get moving, New routine, New Year, Stair Stepper, Starting Fresh

My routine this week, after taking a few weeks off, is to do a combination of bodyweight exercises, combined with my new exercise bands.

Workout – Monday – Sunday

Stair step lunges

Standing Calf Presses

Bodyweight Pushups

Exercise bands curls

Exercise bands Standing Rows

Exercise bands Lateral raises

Standing Exercise Band Ab Crunches

This first week, I’ll stick with one set of 10 for each exercise to get the body moving again. I’m also going to continue to follow moving around every hour for about 1 minute. This could be jumping jacks, walking up and down stairs, or doing some other aerobic activity, to keep the blood flowing and get out of my chair.

Have a great folks!

See you at the finish line!

Michigan got hit with SNOW today. It is so nice to see this white stuff everywhere as we approach Christmas. In light of hazardous driving conditions, I did a bodyweight exercise routine today. Because today was a chest and Triceps day I focused on doing a variety of pushups (wide, close, and normal placement) and one of my favorite triceps exercises, bench dips. I just kept running through these things until my chest and arms were screaming.

I can’t stress the importance of personal safety. If you aren’t comfortable driving to the gym, adapt and improvise. Today and probably tomorrow will be too nasty out to risk a drive to the gym. So, I’ll be coming up with some interesting things to do to hit the body parts I need to.

See you later today folks!
