New Workout

I try to change my workout every 4-6 weeks so that my body doesn't get in a rut.

I think each day I'll tell what I'm doing.

Today was Chest, Biceps, and Abs.

Chest
Incline Dumbbell Press (50lbs) 4 sets x 10 reps - 1 min rest
Chest Dips (I take 60 lbs off my body weight) 4 sets x 10 reps - 1 min rest
Pec Dec (max out at 50 lbs) 4 sets x 10 resp - 1 min rest
Push ups - as many as you can do one time - 1 min rest

Biceps
Narrow Grip Curl - (30 lb barbell) 4 sets x 10 reps - 1 min rest
Wide Grip Curl - (30 lb barbell) 4 sets x 10 reps - 1 min rest
Hammer Curls - (20lbs) 4 sets x 10 reps - 1 min rest
Incline drag curls - as many as you can do once - 1 min rest

Abs
Decline push crunch - 3 sets x 25 reps - 1 min rest
Cable Crunch (15 lbs) - 3 sets x 25 reps - 1 min rest
Twist Crunch (using 6lb medicine ball)

I followed all of this up by doing 20 minutes of High Intensity Training (H.I.T.) on the stair climber.

To be honest, I couldn't have done any better on the biceps. But I could have pushed harder for abs. Good thing I'm going to be working them for 3 days a week now! I also am going to do the real deal stair machine tomorrow for my cardio.

Oh - and everyone should love the motto I was given today:

"Those who die in the gym....will be resurrected on stage!"

This guy that I work with that was training for a competition told me this today. I love it. It is pretty funny sounding but I think I will keep that in my head during the next 200 days of training!
