3/31: Arm Workout and Steady Cardio

Today I did an arm workout that consisted of both biceps and triceps exercises. It’s the same arm workout I’ve been doing for a little while now. I followed immediately with a steady state cardio workout on the treadmill. It felt good to run again, it feels like it’s been awhile. Arm Workout Barbell Curls [...]

3/27 & 3/29: Cardio, Abs and Leg Workout

Today’s post consists of 2 days worth of workouts, cardio/abs and legs, because I forgot to post the workout I did on Saturday, so I’ve just combined the two workouts into one post. I had scaled back on my leg workout this week. I’ve been doing deadlifts twice a week and it’s really helped to [...]

3/16 Workout: Chest, Abs & Cardio

For today’s workout I continued working on the new workout plan I started and today was chest and abs day. I also followed it up with a cardio workout on the treadmill. Chest Workout Incline Dumbbell Press Warm-up: 2 sets x 12 reps, 10# dumbbells 1 set x 10 reps, 20# dumbbells (will be increasing [...]

3/15 Workout: Cardio, Arm Workout and a New Milestone!

Skullcrushers - Triceps Exercise

This past Saturday, I did a new leg workout and decided to follow the entire program I found on Bodybuilding.com. You can find free workouts there under the workout section on the left side of the page. Like the leg workout, I’ll be doing a warm-up set or two and then doing 1 straight set [...]

3/11 Workout: Biceps, Triceps & Cardio

Standing Triceps Extension

For some reason my triceps were really sore today. I must have used them more than I thought yesterday during my ab workout. Whoooops! I still did pretty well even though they were so sore – I raised the weight 5 pounds and still did 12 reps (last week I did 15 reps with less [...]

3/10 Workout: Ab Exercises & Steady State Cardio

Ab workout

I did an unexpected abdominal workout today and it was probably the most intense ab workout I’ve ever done. Awesome! My husband and I both wanted to do cardio today since we didn’t yesterday so while one of us ran, the other one did abs. It worked out pretty well! Abdominal Workout I got the [...]

2/21 & 2/23 Workouts: Cardio, Chest and Back

Chest Workout - bench press

I feel like it’s been too long since I’ve written a post here. That’s probably mostly because I forgot to post my cardio workout from Sunday. (the one I swear I almost died from!) It was pretty crazy and I was so happy when I was done, but my body felt weird for a good [...]

2/18 Workout: Chest, Triceps, HIIT & Steady State Cardio

Today was chest and triceps day again. Oh how I love chest day! It always makes me feel strong. I lifted heavy today because I’m still working my way back up to benching 100 pounds. I did 4 sets of 85 pounds, which you can see in more detail below. I also did another 60 [...]

2/13 & 2/14 Workouts: Heavy Legs, Shoulders & Cardio

Olympic Rings

Happy Valentine’s Day! <3 I did a heavy leg workout and a shoulder workout yesterday and then today I did a steady state cardio workout. I don’t do cardio on leg day – it gets to be too much for my legs, especially when I’m lifting heavy like I have been lately. So…I’m completely kosher [...]

2/11 Workout: Chest, Triceps & 600 Calories Worth of Cardio

Today’s workout was a little tough. I’ve had some kind of stomach flu since Tuesday night and some horrible abdominal cramping to go along with it. Today has been quite a bit better, but I still haven’t been eating as much as I normally would on a workout day. For this reason, I felt weak [...]
