Workout #2

[thoreau]

So tonight was my second training session with my trainer to learn Workout #2. So I'll do two weeks of this new Work out #2 - then alternate back to Workout #1 - then a week of Workout #2 - then I'll meet with him again.

My back and shoulders are really benefiting - and I can tell that my posture points are improving.


Workout #2


1. three sets

10 lb overhead press and then a push-up 1pu/1op 2pu/2op etc. till failure
10 lb reverse fly's

2. three sets:

squat walks across the room and back

3. three sets:

10 rugby squat drills (left leg)
10 rugby squat drills (right leg)
squat walk

4. three one minute drills, :30 rest, repeat:

10 lb kettle alternating overhead press and squat

5. three sets:

20 stability ball hamstring curls
15 wide stance dumbbell squat with 40# dumbbell

6. 15 minutes of core exercises

20 Laying knee tuck
20 Crunches
20 Crunch Knee Tuck Combo
20 side reach left
20 side reach right
20 side to side back stretch
1 minute drill bicycles with shoulder touches
banana hold :10 x10 (hateful!)

Concentrating on posture and core strength are my primary goals. and I'm rockin' the gym as hard as I can three days a week. I also do bicycle spin class on Saturday mornings.

I'm pretty confident I'll be happier about core in no time. YAY!³
