What's Your Workout Today VSGers - Thursday!

Let's hear it!

I have two today, one is already done. I hurt my back doing squats the other day, so I am not quite 100% just yet.

Workout #1 - Orange Theory. I did:

125 squats with 2 20# dumbells

50+ pushups and 40 presses and 20 pushup dumbell rows (freaking hard when you have no core strength)

25 minutes walk/run on the treadmill

10 minutes rowing machine

Calories burned:493 (my back was pinching a bit so I had to take it easy)

 

Workout #2

Shuttle Run Warmup

Bench Press (4 sets 10 reps each)

Overhead Shoulder press (4 sets 10 reps each)

Standing Barbell Row (4 sets 10 reps each)

Bent over Shoulder flys (4 sets 10 reps each)

Tricep Pushdowns (4 sets 10 reps each)

20 burpees

4 sets of shuttle runs (2 left touch, 2 right touch)

 

I have a 5k coming up and I haven't been running as much as I would like so I may try to go do a mile or 2 tonight if my back survives work out #2.

Easy day today.  I am just going to do an hour run. 

My trainer is slacking, I worked out with him yesterday and I am not sore today.  I will tell him to increase the weights.

Easy! Just because you are not sore doesn't mean it didn't work. At some point you shouldn't be sore but if you are easily getting through the training, then it is time to step it up. The last rep should be almost impossible.

That's what I get.  The last rep is almost impossible, but I am so used to feeling sore all over the next day that I am wondering if it's really working if I feel ....great instead!?!  The only place I really feel it is in my back, which makes sense as I hardly ever use those muscles.

A 45 minute strength training workout with my personal trainer.

Bike riding today with my hubby!

Working on lower body today.  Then 30 min's cardio.

Squats are on the menu!!

Rest day, which is good bc I'm so sore walking is hard :)

Waterworks for 45 minutes tonight and signed up to get weightlifting training tomorrow. I think Keith is rubbing off on me
