Monday workout

Changing up a little today 11:30 am to 12:20 pm walk 45 minutes break for 45 min to drink a protein shake 1 pm to 1:45 pm @ home (chest and shoulders) warmup with abs and stretching Incline press (suspended) superset seated calf raises Flat DB Flyes superset 1 legged calf raises DB Overhead press DB Laterals Upright rows I'm doing more reps, slowing down the movement, feeling the muscle work. I'm trying to feel the muscle working as opposed to just working the movement. I'm going to be hurting tomorrow.

Nice job; time to shake it up a little huh, me too. I am doing curcuits for the next six weeks, unless I really like it then I may just stick with em; until I need to shake it up a little again. 104 degrees in the gym tonight, yummy. only 114 today, I think it is a cooling trend. I am doing these with zero rest between sets.

You da man! I really don't think I could do it in that heat. Good job Mike. Circuit training is supposed to be the best way to get more bang for the buck, especially for fat loss. You don't have to worry so much about cardio when you circuit train. There's a new guy out there that has a good idea. Just pick 2 exercises and go back and forth for 15 minutes non stop and try to break you total rep record each workout. Works good for arms like curls and pushdowns. Hell of a pump. It's supposed to keep the blood in the muscle and do what circuit training does for cardio. After those 2 exercises you rest a few minutes and pick 2 other bodyparts. Anyway, good workout Mike. You're kicking butt. (I didn't do anything Tues. I had to get up at 6 am for a training class at work then work all night. Kind of killed my day.)

Thanks, I am really digging the cuircuts. I like that routine you suggested and will throw it in to keep things fresh, pick my two favorite moves per body part, cool beans Same with me Tuesday and tonight; I teach a class at corp and am drained and with the heat it is all about swimming. I will pick back up Thursday. You really do keep me motivated and I thank you for that. I think we could all "Do it" without having this place, but I sure do like having "Us" here. Mike

You guys keep me motivated too. I gotta keep up.
