Week 3; Exercise 1

 Happy Friday, 


today I did a quick leg training day with a 12 minute cardio session at the end. Here is the list:

Exercise 1 = Bulgarian split squat: 4 sets; 50lbs dumbbells for first two sets, 55lbs dumbbells third set, and 60lbs dumbbells fourth set; 6 reps, 5 reps, 3 reps, respectively.

Exercise 2 = Squat: 4 sets; 185lbs first set, 225lbs second set, 275lbs third set, 225lbs fourth set; 8 reps, 5RM, 1 RM, and 3 RM, respectively.

Exercise 3 = High intensity interval circuit training (cardio): 3 repeated circuits: sled push (back and forth); 20lbs medicine ball slams 10 reps; 5 burpees; 1 sprint, one side shuffle, and 1 backward sprint (all back and forth); 40 high knees on a low box; 10 box jumps. Goal is to complete each circuit as quickly as possible. About a 2 minute rest between circuits. 

Have a great weekend!

Below is a video on YouTube and a few photos.

Week 1; Workout 2

Image
 Today, this Sunday, I went for a bike ride with my dad since the weather was perfect. We biked for roughly one hour, at an RPE scale of around 2-3. It was also continuous cardiovascular exercise.  We biked just shy of 9 km. There were some steep parts of the bike path when we crossed small bridges. All in all, we had an awesome time!

Week 5; Exercise 1

 Happy Sunday, For this workout I did the one on LEA "the circuit exercise." I changed some parts up, though. Here is my take on it: Circuit 1: 20 push ups + 20 jump squats + 20 jumping lunges Circuit 2: 20 jumping lunges (reverse lunge to jumping off one foot with the opposite leg doing a knee kick) + 30 seconds plank alternating legs + 15 triceps dips Circuit 3: 20 bicycle crunches + 30 side hops each leg + 15 inchworms I completed 2 rounds. My goal was to complete 3, but I felt gassed out, especially because I had an 8 hour shift before the exercise. We'll get 3 rounds next week! Here is a short video of the workout on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/qziROO2zPYU Have a great week!
