REST FROM REST-PAUSE
MONDAY WAS A BOOGER! I USED THE REST PAUSE(see blog for details) FOR MY UPPER BODY AND ABS WORKOUT. THIS W.O. IS INTENSE AND QUICK. I FEEL THAT THIS TYPE OF WORKOUT FLOODS THE BODY WITH NATURAL GH (GROWTH HOR.)BECAUSE I MAKE MY BIGGEST GAINS IN LEAN MUSCLE AND STRENGTH GAINS BUT HELL I’M SORE TODAY….SO IT REST DAY(HA-HA)…THAT IS I DO CARDIO AND BODY WEIGHT EXERCISES. THAT IS I START WITH 3 SETS OF DECLINE PUSHUPS THEN 3 SETS OF DECLINE SITUPS WITH 50 LBS. FOLLOWED BY LEGLIFT IN A DOUBLE CRUNCH POSITION USING HAND GRIPS.THAT IS I LIFT MY LEGS FOR A COUNT OF TEN THEN V THEN FOR ANOTHER COUNT OF 10 WHILE USING HAND GRIPS THIS IS ONE SET DO 6 SETS with no rest. LAST I DO PLANK WHICH I HOLD FOR 75 SECS WITH HAND GRIPS,REST 15 SECS THEN GO INTO RIGHT SIDE PLANK WITH HAND GRIP IN LEFT HAND…HOLD FOR 75 SECS,REST 15 SECS THEN LEFT SIDE PLANK WITH HAND GRIP FOR 75SECS REST 15 SECS..THIS IS ONE SET DO 3 SETS…NOW I’M READY FOR CARDIO WITH LIGHT DB’S(15LBS),THAT IS I GET ON A STAT BIKE WITH DB’S FOR 30 MINS. I LIKE TO RIDE ONE MILE USING THE DB’S IN SOME FORM OF EXER(OVERHEAD PRESS,CURLS,ETC) THEN THE NEXT MILE HAUL ASS ON MY STAT BIKE FOR ONE MILE…I KEEP THIS UP FOR 30 VERY HARD MINS
