10/12: Full Body Workout

After having a rest day yesterday, today I did another full body workout. It’s very similar to the one I’ve been doing but I have adjusted the amount of weight and number of reps as I’m getting stronger. No cardio today, I’ll save that for tomorrow when I do my 20 minute HIIT workout.

Full Body Workout

Bench Press: 45# on barbell, 2 sets x 10 reps (I currently do not own 20# dumbbells, so I decided to just go back to the bar – on my way back up to 100#!)

Bench Flyes: 10# dumbbells, 2 sets x 12 reps

Bicep Curls: 15# dumbbells, 2 sets x 10 reps

Hammer Curls: 10# dumbbells, 2 sets x 15 reps

Shoulder Press: 15# dumbbells, 2 sets x 8 reps

Lateral Raises: 5# dumbbells, 2 sets x 12 reps

Weighted Crunches: 5# dumbbell, 2 sets x 10 reps (I could feel this a lot more than doing 2 sets of 15 reps without weight!)

Hanging Knee Raises: 2 sets x 15 reps

Lat Pulldowns: 50#, 2 sets x 8 reps

Sitting Tricep Overhead Extensions: 15# dumbbell, 2 sets x 12 reps

I should also mention that I have heard so much about Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred DVD that I’ve finally decided to give it a try. I have heard from a few friends of mine how challenging it is and how sore it left them. And a couple of those girls workout regularly so I’m excited to give it a whirl and see how I do. I am ordering it from Netflix this week and I plan on doing a review on each of the 3 levels that are on the DVD. It should be here by about Thursday, so the first review will come shortly after. If I like it, I might try and then review a few of her other workout DVDs. They all have pretty great reviews. If any of you have experience with the 30 Day Shred DVD I would love to hear about it!
