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 [...]

3/11 Workout: Biceps, Triceps & Cardio

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 [...]

3/3 & 3/4 Workouts: Cardio, Biceps, Triceps

Today’s workout was pretty much the exact same biceps/triceps workout that I did last week so I’m gonna keep this pretty short. I did do over an hour of cardio last night and I included that in the beginning of this workout post. The biceps/triceps workout immediately follows and is a great workout for those [...]

2/25: Biceps/Triceps Workout – New!

Earlier this week I started a new workout program where I decided that I’ll continue to do strength training Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday and cardio at least 3 days per week. I normally do cardio on two strength training days and I skip it on leg day and do it the following day. Today I [...]

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 [...]

2/4 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 [...]

Skull Crushers (or lying triceps extension) Triceps Exercise

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

Adrian Peterson - Minnesota Vikings Running Back

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 [...]

1/14 Workout: Chest & Triceps

I started a new workout program this week and today was chest and triceps day. I love chest day and today’s workout was much better than my last chest workout. Actually…I guess I shouldn’t say it was “much better” but it was a lot more fun because I used the bench and barbell this time. [...]

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
