6/15: Women’s Chest Workout – NEW!
This is the best chest workout I’ve done in a very long time. My chest is already feeling quite tired and I’m sure it’ll be sore tomorrow. This is a new workout although the exercises aren’t new to me at all the repetitions are a bit different from other chest workouts I’ve done. If you [...]
4/18: Women’s Chest Workout and Cardio
Today was chest day for me so I did a chest workout followed by a somewhat short cardio workout. If you’re a regular blog reader here, you probably know by now that I am a fan of doing cardio workouts immediately following my strength training workouts. I have found them to be very effective and [...]
4/7: Chest Workout + High-Intensity Interval Training
Finally, a workout! I haven’t worked out in just over a week! The last workout I did was the arm and cardio workouts I did on the 31st of March. I didn’t plan on going a whole week without working out but between sick kids and a birthday party, things got hectic and I think [...]
3/24: Chest Workout and Ebook News!
Today was chest day and the workout was short and sweet so this blog post won’t be real long either! It’s nice to have quick workouts sometimes. It’s a nice change. When I did my last chest workout I also did an abs workout and cardio but I skipped them both this time. I’m not [...]
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 [...]
3/9 Workout: Chest and Back
Today’s workout pissed me off. I don’t know why but the past 3 weeks I’ve been flat benching 85# and it feels as if it’s getting harder each week. Shouldn’t that be the opposite?? Usually that happens to be the case, but not as of late. I feel like I’m stuck at 85 pounds. Today [...]
3/2 Workout: Chest & Back
Today’s chest and back workout felt pretty tough. I’m not sure if it was because I did legs Sunday instead of Saturday and lost an extra day of rest, or if it was because we started a little later than normal. It was probably a combination of both, but I really struggled with my flat [...]
2/21 & 2/23 Workouts: Cardio, Chest and Back
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 [...]
2/4 Workout: Chest, Triceps & Cardio
Today was chest & triceps day followed with steady state cardio. I always get excited about chest day. I like the bench press – it’s always been one of my favorite exercises. I decided to up the weight 5 pounds this week and was still able to perform 5 reps. That’s right in the 4 [...]
1/28 Workout: Chest, Triceps & Cardio
Today I got a kick ass workout in! A couple days ago, I felt so fatigued during my workout and I was getting upset because I couldn’t lift what I normally do. It seemed to take a lot more effort. I checked with My Fitness Pal and SparkPeople to calculate the calories I should be [...]
1/21 Workout: Chest, Triceps & Cardio
The photo in this post really has nothing to do with my workout today in any way but it’s Adrian Peterson and my Vikings are in the NFC Championship game this coming Sunday so I’m showing my team spirit! I realized today that I completely skipped shoulders. For my last workout I did back and [...]
1/7 Workout: Chest, Abs & HIIT
Today I finally got a strength training workout in – it’s been a few weeks! I kind of took it pretty easy but I’m definitely feeling pretty tired right about now. Getting started again is the hardest part and I’m so looking forward to being on a regular strength training schedule again. I’ve missed it [...]
Memorial Weekend 2009: 1 Workout, My Bridal Shower, A Picnic & Memorials
This was one of the best weekends I’ve had in a very long time. Definitely not a lot of working out involved, but I’ll be back on track this week. It’s good to take a break sometimes! Before I get into everything else, here’s the small workout I did get it on Saturday:
5/16 Workout: Chest, Abs & Cardio
Today was kind of a disappointing day. I did my chest workout, the ab workout I’ve been doing and then some cardio. All was going great until my last set of flat bench. My fiance’ wanted me to try for 105 two times since I did 100 lbs the week prior. I failed. I had [...]
My Daily Workout: Cardio, Abs & Chest
Yep, I worked on my chest again today. I have a big love for the flat bench barbell press and I’m really not sure why. I also did some steady cardio, upper abs and obliques. Abs Crunches – 2 sets x 20 reps
My Daily Workout: Chest, Shoulders, Triceps, Abs & Cardio
Today my workout consisted of 1 chest exercise, 2 shoulder exercises and 1 triceps exercise. I normally would do 2 exercises for each but I kind of had to speed through my workout because my littlest guy wasn’t cooperating. :] Chest Barbell Bench Press – 65# 4 sets x 6 reps
My Chest Workout
I was supposed to do a chest workout yesterday, but we had Applebee’s for lunch and it totally screwed up my stomach. My stomach is really sensitive to salad dressing and last night I ordered a Ceasar salad, totally forgetting about the horrible stomach pains I would have afterwards. Definitely not a smart move on [...]
