Friday Workout.

So I’ve been working out pretty heavily with a trainer three days a week.  She thoroughly kicks my ass and I hate her for it.  Not really.  She’s great.  But I do complain.  A LOT.  I’ve said before that my new company is da bomb (just went there) and they pay for my trainer…in full.  Side note:  If I ever talk about leaving my job for another one, please reach through the computer screen and smack me.  K thanks.

The studio is what I would call traditional training.  Lots of deadlifts, squats, bench presses, etc.  But sometimes they throw stuff in there that will throw you for a loop.  Things you don’t think will be hard, are really hard.  I thought posting my workouts with explanation videos would probably be a great idea for anyone who doesn’t go to a trainer and would like workouts they can do on their own (sometimes with a friend who can spot).  So here is the first, which is a total body workout:

First group: Three sets:

• Single leg lunges on weight bench with two 15 lb dumbells x 15 reps

• Tricep extensions with rings x 10 reps

If you don’t have access to rings, try regular tricep extensions

Second Group: Four sets:

• Step ups on weight bench with 15 lb dumbells x 10 reps each leg

• Bicep curls with 10 lb dumbells x 15 reps

• Weighted crunches with 5-10 lbs x 15 reps

Third Group: Three sets:

• 250 watts on a row machine or 1/10th of a mile sprint on the treadmill
• Close grip barbell bench press

• Crunch frogs x 15 reps

Happy workouts!
