Someone is motivated, and ready to share some schweatyness…ME!
So, here’s EXACTLY what went down in the gym today. Because you all really liked it when I posted my actual workout a few weeks ago. (So flattered. Thanks for the feedback. High five.) And, I am going to try attempt to do a post like this once a month. Because well, it motivates me to kick my butt in the gym too, in a share worthy way.
If you are in a rut, need a workout, or something to write down to do before your next trip to the gym (Which is always a good thing to do). Here you go…
*Click on links for videos that explain the moves. Sorry I couldn’t find any dudes with cool accents wearing fanny packs and neon spandex.
Warm up: 10 minutes walking on the treadmill at a 3 – 3.5 pace with the treadmill at as high of an incline as it will go. I love this.
Stretch
Core Work
• plate toe touches x 20, immediately followed by plank hold knee tucks x 5 each leg
Repeat 3 times.
Get Moving.
• Do 50 push ups. Try to keep your elbows in. Even if that means you can’t do 50.
One set. No repeat. Unless you are feeling saucy.
• Front squat to push press x 5.
Repeat for 5 sets total.
Superset #1:
• Single arm alternating incline bench x 6 each arm / immediately followed by Bent Over Dumbbell Rows x 10 / immediately followed by stationary dumbbell lunges x 6 each leg / immediately followed by alternate plyo step ups x 6 each leg.
Rest one minute. More if you need.
Repeat for 4 sets total.
Superset #2:
• Single leg rear foot elevated split squats x 8 each leg / immediately followed by some dips x 10
Repeat for 3 sets total.
And finally….
• Do 15-25 pull ups. In as many sets as it takes you.
Donezo.
Stretch, chug some water, give yourself a pat on the back. Put on a non sweat drenched shirt, and go find a cool juice place to grab a smoothie or something.
Or go to Chipotle.
High five.
And thought you’d enjoy a pic of my new kicks that I’m obsessed with, instead of one of me all sweaty carrying a dumbbell.
