Guest guest Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Good job, Stacey! Sounds like you have lots of variety for your gym workouts! Do you do any work with the triceps rope? This is one of my favorite exercises, and I always work it in when I go video-free: http://www.exrx.net/WeightExercises/Triceps/CBPushdownRope.html Keep up the good work! Sara > > since i have been doing my workouts at the y--haven't done any dvd's in a long time (besides the kettlebell and yoga i did at laura's). just wanted to share my three strength workouts i have been doing for the last couple of months--a rotation of three. as a warmup i usually run 1.30 to 2 miles on the treadmill. i typed abs at the end of the workouts but i really do them after i run. 2 sets of 15/12 and 10/8 (lateley i have added a third set to some of the exercises). going to do all three one more time and then i will have done each workout 6 times--so it is time to change things up:) > > workout 1: > chest: decline dumbbell bench press/pushups > back:dumbbell row > lat machine > shoulders: seated dumbbell shoulder press > forearms: wrist extensions > triceps: dumbbell kickbacks > biceps: twisting hammer curls > legs: squats (dumbbell) > calves raise > deadlift > abs: planks > weighted crunch > side crunch > stretch > > > workout 2: > chest: dumbbell bench press/pushups > back:dumbbell row > lat machine > shoulders: standing dumbbell shoulder press > forearms: wrist curl > triceps: standing overhead dumbbell extension > biceps: standing dumbbell curls > legs: squats (dumbbell) > calves raise > deadlift > abs: planks > crunch > side crunch > medicine ball crunch > stretch > > workout 3: > chest: incline dumbbell bench press/pushups > back: rear lateral raise (dumbbell) > pullover using a dumbbell or ez bar > shoulders: standing dumbbell front raise > forearms: wrist extension > triceps: lying ez bar or dumbbell extension > biceps: standing dumbbell hammer curls or ez bar > legs: sumo squats (dumbbell) > calves raise > step up (14 inches) dumbbell > abs: planks > swiss ball crunch > jackknife on the ball > side crunch > stretch > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Hi - I don't know when I last posted my workout - but basically I have been doing "mindless" cardio - bike or treadmill - and yoga. Today was 30 min on the treadmill doing a hill plan I clipped from Shape Magazine. I did 2.5 miles in 33 minutes. Followed that up with Suzanne Deason's Yoga Conditioning for Weight Loss - one of my all time favorites for a gentle and well taught program. Love Sedona, too!Yesterday I did 30 min on the bike followed by Suzanne Deason's Balance Ball for Weight Loss (basically, a gentle Pilates routine using the stability ball). I'm definately appreciating these workouts this week. My back was all stressed out from packing/unpacking, loading/unloading the car, and driving to and from vacation - so it is happier to be getting lengthened by yoga!Talk to everyone soon - this is my staycation week.
