1/19 Workout: Back & Biceps

Today was back and bicep day again and I actually feel like I got another great workout in. I did absolutely no cardio today because my legs are still sore from my last leg workout, but I think I might do some cardio tomorrow.

I always feel guilty if I’m not doing it at least every other day during the week but I figure it’s better to rest up and wait another day instead of trying to push myself so hard I injure myself or pull a muscle. Then I’d have to wait a REALLY long time before I got to workout again.

Back Workout

• Lateral Pull-Downs: 3 sets x 12 reps (30#)
• Bent-Over Rows: 1 set x 12 reps, 2 sets x 8 reps (30#)
• Barbell Goodmorning: 3 sets x 10 reps (35#)

The only reason I did 12 reps for the first set of bent rows was because I forgot. It got really, really hard around rep 7, but for some reason I thought I was supposed to do 12. Um, nope!

Bicep Workout

• Assisted Chin-Ups: 3 sets x 5 reps
• EZ Bar Curl: 3 sets x 10 reps (30#)

My husband helped me do the chin-ups so I can get used to the full range of motion. Then as I get stronger, he’ll need to help me less and less until I can finally do them by my own self.

I hope you’re having a fantastic week – stay motivated!
