Another switcheroo

This morning’s workout was supposed to be leg day, with chest on deck for tomorrow.  But last week after hitting legs on Thursday, I also happened to have chest on Friday, and doing multiple dropsets on squats, hack squats, etc.  sapped my energy for Friday.  So……..I changed up the order today.  I generally hit legs once a week, so I’m going to schedule them on Fridays (especially when doing a lot of dropsets or supersets), regardless of where I’m at with upper body.  I don’t count on weekends for workouts, so Friday leg day will give them extra rest.  And if I do get in a bonus workout on Saturday, well, a low energy workout is fine.  It’s all good.   :D   

WORKOUT TODAY—  CHEST  (7-10 reps, 45-60 sec’s rest):

—  Decline bench & incline bench  (Alternate 1 set each & repeat, for 6 total sets each.  2 dropsets each on 5th & 6th set.)

—  Flyes & incline flyes  (Alternate 1 set each & repeat, for 3 total sets each.  2 dropsets each on 3rd set.)

—  Pec dec machine  (3 sets, 2 dropsets on 2nd & 3rd set.)

CARDIO:  26 min’s of intervals on the stairmaster.  Heartrate 155-170.

ABS:  4 sets of crunches with 10 lb wt.  (1 dropset on 3rd & 4th set.)

Morning workouts ROCK.  Great energizer & start to the day.   :D   

Just getting to the gym IS a successful workout!   :D

    I agree, I couldn’t make it through my day without my morning workout. After about 5 minutes I’m wide a wake and ready to hit it!

    Adapt and overcome…you do it well. Knowing whats best for your body and recuperation is vital. Nice change up.

    Wow, you logged yet another workout before I even woke up.. maybe I wasn’t paying attention to time before, because I get the sense you’ve always been a morning exercizer.

    PS - what’s DOMS? and i had glazed walnuts, not donuts.. i would have been a lot more upset over donuts! haha :)

    "It’s all good." Adaptability.
