Tuesday: My Workout Partner Is Gone……
Much to my dismay, after arriving at the gym yesterday I discovered that my iPod was missing. After replaying the previous night, I remembered that I left it in the bathroom after I finished my cardio. Went to the desk to check if it had been turned in, but no such luck. So yesterdays workout was definitely a long one, as there was no music for me to get lost in to distract my mind from the pain of a leg (Quads) day. I felt each and every one of those extra extensions at the end of my workout.
So training went like this:
Abs:
Rope Pull-downs 3 x 25
Cable Side Bends 3 x 25 (each side
DB Weighted Bench V-Ups (3/15)
Legs:
Extensions 4 x 25
Leg Press (feet close) 5 sets (15/12/10/8/6)
Squats 7 sets (shoes off)
Lying Leg Curl 4 sets (15/12/10/8) superset w/
Standing Single Leg Curl 4 sets
Walking Barbell Lunge 3 x 30
Leg Extensions 2 x 25
Standing Calf RAise 4 x 20
Donkey Calf Raise 3 x 15
Cardio:
25 minutes on Incline treadmill Immediately Post-weights
30 Minutes Stairmill Intervals (130/30:65/90)
When I arrived home from the gym, my new supplements had come in the mail. I was so excited that I wanted to go back to the gym just so I could use them immediately and see if I felt anything. I did end up going back for evening cardio, but no weights. I received a free fat caliper with my order, so now I will be able to include BF% in my measurement updates. I am going to try to keep a really good log with regular updates about the new supplements. I will review in about 2 months to see if there was really any affect from the addition. Luckily I have a journal for the past year, so I can luck back at how my weight, measurements, and pictures progressed with my previous 2 cuts and compare to this time around.
Well, it’s time for me to head to gym. Have to hit these shoulders and triceps today. Planning to take my daughter school shopping today, so I need to get back home early. Shopping with my daughter is always a joy. She is 15 and hates everything that I pick out (her usual response is, “that would look nice on you, but I don’t think it’s something that I would wear”). But the minute one of her friends says that the same outfit is cute, she absolutely has to have it. Oh, the joy of a teenage daughter.
Happy Training!
