stretched a bit last night while watching the original rocky! Adrienne!!! anyway after a big indulgence at a friend's house for dinner i was ready to start this week on the good note.
started with men's health 15 minute workout! first i did a better burn routine. this circuit workout is referred to as offset training where you are holding two different weight in each hand. i did 10 and 5. its 3 exercises of combination moves of squat/curl/press,bridge with chest press on ball, and low lunge with row. you then repeat switching the weights in each hand. basic but definitely felt the idea of the workouts. next i did jump on it. 4 sets alternating deadlifts(i didn't like how he did it so i did it the way i always do my deadlifts.his looked more like squats)45 sec jump rope then push press. now for each set he lowered the weight but up the reps and kept the ropes at 45 sec no rest. this was tough but went by real quick. i am impressed with what i did on this dvd and will consider any other purchase's from men's health dvd collection. its different and straight to the point. the only complaint there were no warm ups or cool downs. not even separate chapters. but great add on workouts.
today's kettlebells,which i didn't intend to do but was on a roll, was brought by charm city kettlebells. i did do the workout as written just did 2 rounds as hard and fast as i could with good form. that was more then enough after the fact i did a workout before that. i follow sandy sommer on twitter so i get most of his blog posts. check out his blog for some great insights and workouts.
i am spent and with time to spare! guess that is what happens but your dh doesn't latch the back door properly and the cat opens it and sets the house alarm off LOL. gave me the scare of a lifetime but woke me up. thank goodness i have a good alarm company that sees the sense of humor with these things. i was just about to fall back asleep after he left early for work too!
