TGIF!! *happy dance*
Yesterday was an unplanned rest day unfortunately. Didn't get up early and didn't go as planned.
Today, however, we have to go out so we will be hitting the gym in the afternoon.
On deck:
IF we do cardio I will be doing a 30 min. run - possibly speed work. Not sure yet.
Chest: DB work: single arm flat DB press; single arm flat flies; single arm incline press & flies; pull overs; 3x10
Abs: Floor work: Planks, crunches
Food: Good. Today I'm going to have to watch the calorie in-take since we'll be going out to dinner tonight and I know that wine will be involved.0 -
If I haven't told you yet, just be wary of alcohol intake. Alcohol inhibits any fat loss until it's out of the system. Keep it up!TGIF!! *happy dance*

Is it just you two? Do you mind if I get other people to join? I'd also like to join if that's okay. And, I'm a total newbie, so don't laugh at how little I lifted. My arms are very weak. LOL. If I remember correctly, this is what I did yesterday:
Morning:
ARC (1 min)
incline press (10@25lbs), leg extensions (5@70lbs), leg curls (5@70lbs)
I did this two times: incline press (10@25lbs), leg extensions (5@70lbs), leg curls (5@70lbs), leg extensions (5@70lbs), leg curls (5@70lbs), recumbent bike (3 mins), ARC (2 minutes). * On the 10 on the incline press, I had to go down to 15 lbs because I could barely lift the weights without my arms shaking.
Afternoon:
30DS L1
portable stepper (3 minutes)
Enjoy your Sunday. :happy:0 -

Everyone is welcome! Niner started this topic 2 years ago for anyone who wanted to post their workouts, etc to keep themselves accountable.
No workout is too small, etc. Just get it done.
