Love the smiley face!

Good Morning Ladies,

Today I did a mix of a 24 minute tabata workout with growingananas and added on 15 minutes of 2.0 biceps single body part premix (1 set only). I will do my own stretch now.

Linda - how was that MRT workout?
Annette - sorry to read you hurt your back. Any idea what caused that? I have to be so careful with deadlifts (I barely ever do them)
Nora - WTG with your workout yesterday. Jump rope for 30 minutes oh my!!!
Big hello to Nicki

Have a wonderful day friends.

Hi ladies,

Siobhan, I just did too much weight on a back exercise and made it hurt. Nothing too bad.

Today I followed workout 2 from the internet which was:

Barbell Incline Bench

6 reps at 33 pounds for 3 sets

Lat Pulldown

4 reps at 55 pounds for 3 sets
Then I went up to 70 pounds using a different hand placement, then 85 pounds for 4 reps

Then I added head high rope pull for upper back, chest and shoulders starting at 50 pounds and going up to 110 pounds

Then Dumbbell Bicep Curl

10 reps at 15 for the 1st set of 10 then dropped to 12.5 for the next 2 sets

Triceps 1 arm overhead with 12.5 pounds

Dumbbell Flyes

10 reps at 12.5 pounds for 3 sets

Dumbbell Skull crushers

10 reps at 12.5 pounds for 3 sets

Lateral Raise using 5 pounds for 12 reps for 2 sets each arm

Then I did the rear delt machine set at 40 pounds for 10 reps for 3 sets

Then I added the inner and outer thigh machines for some leg work

Then finished with floorwork for abs, legs and glutes with some weighted exercises and a stretch .

All in all an 85 minute workout.

Nice job ladies.

Have a great day!!

Nice 85 min. internet weight mix today Annette! This seemed different & challenging to
me!

Hey Linda,

I added things from workout 3 into this workout and then added my own stuff too so technically it was a compilation of 2 internet workouts and my own touch added to it. Not sure about tomorrow's workout. But these internet workouts were very short so that is why I added on to them. Today's just ran a bit longer.

My weight is climbing again and I am frustrated with it. I am sitting here thinking about doing cardio too. Sigh.

I think I read somewhere that working mostly weights could add weight, cause you’re
building muscle, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing…but maybe throwing in some
cardio could help. I am certainly no expert on the subject & might be saying something
that isn’t correct, so maybe you could google the subject & see. Anyway, great
workouts!

Thanks Linda, I just did 25 minutes roughly of a Fitness Kombat 57 which is a compilation a bit choppy at time but still a good cardio.

You are right about weights and muscle weight but I was losing up until the weekend and now it is creepy up a little bit every day.

Who knows.

 

[aqua girl]

Who knows.

Ain't that the truth!! Good job on adding in 25 min. of Fitness Kombat 57 cardio workout. Good news is that
it can't hurt!
