I usually don’t workout in the mornings during the week but I decided to change my routine a little and get a quick workout in. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays are my arms and back day so I worked those areas this morning. I don’t belong to a gym and I don’t have much equipment at my house, so all I could pretty much do were pushups, dips and work with the dumbells. I have 10lb. dumbbells at the moment. Here’s what my workout looked like:

Jump rope: 100 revolutions

Jumping Jacks: 75

Pushups: 50

Crunches 100+

Tricep Dips: 3×20 reps

Overhead Press: 3×15 reps

Bicep Curls: 3x 20 reps

Dumbell Bent over Row 2 x 20

Tricep Kickbacks 3 x 15

This morning about 7:00am I tried the running program from the article, “10 Laps to a Healthier U”. I switched it up a little and added my own thing to it. Like instead of doing the crunches, (didn’t want to lay on the ground) I ran bleachers to work those glutes. It was a pretty good workout for me because I usually run a mile and 15 to 20 bleachers. When I got home I did a few crunches and stretched. I really feel like I got a good cardio workout today. 

Just wanted to document my progress so far. I have been very consistient with my workouts more than I have ever been in the past. I can see a major change in my arms. They don’t have too much of the jiggle they use to have. I guess the dips are working.

Well this morning I was able to get a little cardio workout in after not working out for about 3 days. I went to my now favorite place, a high school track. They have these really high stairs that I run up and down about ten to twenty times. It really does a number on my thighs and butt. Hopefully I’ll see a change really soon. I also ran around the a few times. It started to get really hot so I headed home where I jump roped and did about 50 pushups.
