Georgia Bound!!!

[koshka3]

So here it begins.

 

My battle plan is as follows- attack accumulation of fat in all high density areas (legs, glutes and abdomen) with a continuous and increasingly difficult workout regimen. Arms, chest and back won't be ignored, also yoga will be incorporated to maintain flexibility .

 

As of today I worked out my arms (since I ran yesterday and worked 18 hours), here was my training regimen for today:

 

15 reps 2 sets of upright rows with resistance bands

 

15 reps 2 sets of over hand kettle bell raises

 

15 reps 2 sets of underhand kettle bell raises

 

15 reps 2 sets of bicep curls with resistance bands

 

5 reps 3 sets narrow (tricep) pushups

 

5 reps 3 sets wide push ups

 

 

I felt my arms pulsate, so sore, yet sooo good. Can't wait for tomorrow

Leg Day!!! Let's all cheer for Leg Day!!!

 

So I only did one set this morning, but i'll do another repetition before bed. Here was my battle scheme:

 

50 jumping jacks

 

20 lunges

 

40 calf raises

 

10 leg abductions with resistance bands (each side)

 

10 jump squats

 

30 squats

 

 

 

It was intense, my legs were wobbly after- felt glorious.

 

I recommend this workout, but keep in mind - Do Not compromise your form, if you falter take a moment to focus yourself and tell yourself " I am a Warrior" (Or Assassin in my case )

[CatFace]

Your workout for today. Today's workout focuses on the back. Be mindful of your form. Take your time doing these until you feel comfortable doing them. If you feel pain stop immediately.

 

The most important thing in working out is injury prevention. 

 

Bird-Dog Exercise      - 10 Reps Each Side

Bridge                        - Hold for 10 Seconds

Contra. Limb Raises  - 10 Reps Each Side

Superman Exercise   - Hold For 10 Seconds

So with the help of my fellow Assassin- Catface... Back Day was a Success!

 

 

I finished all the exercises required and had enough energy to do them again.

 

After that I wanted more- I know it'll hurt in the morning, but it felt so great .. So I did squats 15 x 4 ..

 

Each Set made me more wobbly but I kept form and didn't stop.

 

Tomorrow is Chest Day! Bring it!!

Forgot to update my battle log, but doesn't mean I did nothing.

 

Yesterday was Chest day .. So I completed 10 x5 of:

Chest Press with resistance bands

 

Lateral Pull downs with resistance bands

 

Upright rows with resistance bands

Today is a day for Abdominals..

 

I'm not in the mood to gorge on chocolate, nothing tastes better than a solid workout anyways. I have a lot to study and little time before I need to sleep - work tomorrow (18hours straight)

 

 

So My Abs will be killed today, here's the regimen..

 

Abdominal hold- holding my body weight on my hands on a chair while tucking my knees in and breathing normally- expected hold 30seconds to a minute.

 

Side crunch - doing side crunches but balancing on my right hand and right knee while my left leg is in the air and my left elbow is behind my head. 8 reps 2 sets (each side)

 

(Now A little bit of Pilates) The Hundred- going into boat pose with hands off the floor hovering at you sides, head and shoulders off the mat and legs in the air. Pump your hands up and down according to your breaths- inhale 5 pumps, exhale 5 pumps . Goal 100 pumps.

 

Squat twists- It's exactly what it sounds like- squat down, twist then come up and straighten out. 5 x 5 expected.

 

The Climb Up - Laying on the mat, knees bent and one leg extended, wrapped around that foot is a scarf by which you must climb up and hold for a count of 2. Keep head neutral and do 10 reps 2 sets (each side).

 

(Now some Ballet) Ballet twist- sitting on the mat, legs together extended in front of you, lean back 45 degrees- be mindful of your abs(engage them, it's valentine's day ) Bring both arms overhead and twist like a prima ballerina. When twisting to the right, place your right forearm on the mat and reach with the left  for a count of 3. Come back to center and do the other side. 8 reps 2 sets (each side).

 

Single Leg Stretch - laying on the mat, head and shoulders off the mat as well as legs. Tuck in one knee and maintain the elevation of the other (approx. 45 degrees). Alternate legs without dropping them to the floor. 10 reps each side!

 

Lastly Recovery Cobra - hold for a count of 5, deep breaths and crawl to the blender for post workout drink.
