7/1: Arms & Abs Strength Training Workouts

Happy first day of July! Today I did arms and abs strength training workouts. I missed my Monday workout because of an insane migraine I had. It hurt to move my eyes so I didn’t even try to do anything.

Here’s the workout:

Arms

Tricep Pressdowns – 3 sets x 8 reps (35#)

Superset:

Dumbbell Curls – 3 sets x 12 reps (10#)

Hammer Curls – 3 sets x 12 reps (10#)

For the dumbbell curls and hammer curls I did supersets. I started with a set of dumbbell curls and then immediately completed a set of hammer curls. I rested for about 90 seconds in between and then did that two more times for a total of 3 sets per exercise.

Abs

Hanging Knee Raises – 2 sets x 25 reps

Exercise Ball Twists – 2 sets x 50 reps

I’ve been slacking on the cardio lately because my 1-year-old like to try to jump on it once I start running. I think I might do some cardio on my fiance’s off days. More workout days for me, but if it’s what I need to do to get some cardio in, I’ll do it. Doing cardio regularly (even if only for 20 minutes 3 times per week) and eating 1,400 calories per day seems to be a great weight loss method for me.
