The Chances

How a 250+ Pound Couch Potato Got Healthy

Tuesday, April 08, 2008

DAY 30's over, the program's over, *snif*. It also ended with a whimper, it wasn't too difficult a workout. Not nearly as difficult as yesterday's anyway, although I was really feeling it before the back extensions were over. I also did more pike crunches than I've been able to do before, and was able to up the weight on the plank rows.

Circuit 1
Standing Lat Pulldowns, 8 reps w/heavy weight whatever that's supposed to mean, 80lbs
Lunges (Basic), 50 rapidly alternating legs

Circuit 2
Plank Rows, 20 reps (10 per arm), @ 25lbs
Jumping Lunges, 20
Swing Kicks (kick leg over back of chair), 30 reps (15 per leg)

Circuit 3
Seated Cable Rows, 12 @ 120lbs
Pendulum Lunges w/Hammer Curls, 20 (10 each leg) @ 15lbs
Step-ups, 20 (10 each leg)

Circuit 4
Frog Kicks, 20 reps
Back Extensions, 10 reps on Roman Chair
Pike Crunch, 20 without weights, 20 w/15lb dumbbells in hands

Circuit 5
Dumbbell Rows, 12 reps
Military Shoulder Press Prone on Body Ball, 10 reps
Concentration Curls, 24 reps (12 per arm) in static squat (ouchie)
Rock Star Jumps, 20 reps

The rest of the week I'm going to run at lunch, taking Saturday off in prep for Sunday's 5k.
