A Great Glute Workout
I much prefer my switch to waiting to eat my first meal until after my Saturday morning workout. It unfortunately does mean that my body has been starving for a long time from last meal Friday to first meal Saturday, but my meals on Saturday stretch and align better with my waking hours.
E and I are going out tonight to a house party where there’s going to be food. I’ve planned it so that I’ll be eating meal 4 and 5 while I am there. I obviously be looking to taking home a €˜doggy bag’ for my cheat day tomorrow!! Haha
After my hour on the Step Mill today, I worked Glutes and Calves and got a really nice burn on both.
I tried the following Glute exercise today :. I found it very effective! Try it out!
Ball Squeeze and Lift
Lay on side. Place a medium sized exercise ball between your ankles and squeeze tightly. Then lift the ball straight up 6 inches or more and hold. Hold the ball up for 5-30 seconds or more depending on your fitness level and repeat 6-15 times. Make sure to do both sides. This exercise targets inner & outer thighs & glutes.
Now, back to blogging :.
E joined me at the gym today. He has this wicked routine that he goes through on Saturdays. He does an interval of Wide Grip Pullups, Pushups and Dips. For each exercise and each interval he works each to failure and he repeats this for 10 intervals! It’s wicked and extremely tough.
Lastly, I forgot to mention that Shaun’s trick for Wide Grip Pullups is WICKED!!!! Unfortunately, unless you work out at R.Hill Goodlife you’ll be unable to see how it’s done. However, you can always contact Shaun at www.shaun-campbell.com for more details : and I’m going to plug him now : discussion on how he can help you achieve all of your fitness and nutrition goals. He is a phenomenal trainer and lifestyle coach! Hey Shaun, I peeped the exercise to E and he liked it : it just may show up at Strictly Fitness!! Ha-ha.
Well, it’s time for me to sign off and start cooking my protein for the week : low fat brownies for the party tonight : I do plan on keeping some for myself for tomorrow!!!!
Have a great Saturday!
Cheers,
Nke
