Today was Shoulders and Trap. This is my last workout and I'm on a rest week. Looking forward to it, really need one. Had a great workout today.
1 min. 30 second rest between each exercise and set.
SHOULDERS:
Standing Lateral Raise - 8's/15 reps - 2 sets (warmup)
Standing Lateral Raise - 15's/12 reps - 3 sets
***Up 1#.
Arnold Press - 15's/12 reps - 4 sets
***I actually lowered my weights on this one. Did 20's last time but my form was sloppy and I just didn't have it in my today to do 20's or higher. This felt good and I had really good form.
Barbell Upright Rows - 55#/12 reps - 2 sets
Barbell Upright Rows - 55#/11 reps - 1 set
Barbell Upright Rows - 55#/10 reps - 1 set
***Up 3#. This was tought. Last 3 reps were killers in each set.
Seated Bent-Over Lateral Raise - 21's/12 reps - 4 sets
***Up 1#, really felt these, very tough!
TRAPS:
Standing Dumbbell Shrugs - 40's/25 reps - 4 sets
***Up 3#. These really burned towards the end.
That is all....
Roselyn - Wow girl, nice workout. 80 minutes is long time to do cardio, especially for me. I bet your burned mega calories with that workout!!! Nice job!
Hope you all have a great weekend!

Good morning.
Roselyn - Great cardio choice. I may need to take a day off from Insanity to do that one. Hope you enjoy your Saturday.
Debbie - You did have a great workout and a much earned rest week.
I did Insanity's Plyo Cardio Circuit yesterday. My legs were a little sore (doesn't happen often, so I hadn't really planned for this). I don't recommend doing Insanity with already sore muscles. Most people could likely figure that one out on their own. Evidently the obvious continues to elude me On the upside, I think that workout ran the doms right out of my legs and they feel pretty good now. Today, I have Upper Body Pyramid planned. I will likely do a split (need to figure out) and repeat the descent (like I did last time) -- also some steady state. Theresa got Powerstrike stuck in my head -- I may go with that.
Hi to everyone who follows. Have a good day.

Roselyn - YES. I think it's an excellent workout series and I really can't say enough good things about it. I'm really, really enjoying it. I do not always REMEMBER this during the workouts , but I think they are just what I've needed. Very tough - but doable and always room for a bit of improvement, even if that just means trying to go a little faster next time or whatever. I've really come to like Shaun T, too - he's motivating and SMART in the way he designed the whole program, I think (including the recovery). I remember asking you about Insanity when I was kicking around whether or not to try it. Your high opinion of it was part of what convinced me to go for it. Thank you. I'm really looking forward to the 2nd month (already previewed the workouts), too. No doubt that when I've finished the rotation, I'll include them (like you do) on their own.
