Tonight's Workout (July 1, 2011) - A BRUTAL one!!

Okay, since Braxton went out of town at the last minute and Tobe was completely booked I had to use another trainer.  I'm always apprehensive of using other trainers because they don't know what I have been doing or what I'm capable of doing.  This was the same thing when I had to start using Braxton and then again when I had to use Tobe one time.  Good thing is, I liked  his style and he pushed me.  So, I will be using him again if I need to in the future.

Here is what he had me do:

Alternating lunges with a 20 pound weight in each hand - set of 20.

Body squats with a 10 pound weight in each hand, but as you come up from your squat you do a military press - set of 20.

Tricep kick backs with 10 pound weights in each hand - set of 20

Medicine Ball - take a 6 pound medicine ball and do a motion like you are filling a bucket of water from a lake and then tossing it over your shoulder - set of 15 on each side.

Plank position with elbows on the floor and then bring yourself into a push-up position.  Alternating which hand you bring yourself up into the push-up - set of 20

Hip bridges while alternating your legs - so your on your back, with one leg extended and one bent at the knee.  Then you raise your hip upward. then switch legs.  - set of 20

Reverse Crunches - here you elevate your legs 6 inches off the ground and bend your knees back and forth - set of 20

Return to Alternating lunges - set of 20

Chest press with 15 pound weights in each hand - set of 20

Bent over rows with 15 pound weights in each hand - set of 20

Return to squats - set of 20

Lunges - one set is length of gym and back

Leg press - 2 sets of 20

Return to Plank position exercise - set of 10

Return to Hip Bridges - set of 20

Medicine ball throws - here you take the medicine ball and while using your abs to twist throw the ball to your partner - set of 20 on each side.

Medicine ball sit-ups - take the medicine ball and lay flat on your back and the ball over your head. As your coming up in sit-up position throw the ball to your partner.  Your partner will throw the ball back to you as your going back down. - repeat motion for set of 20.

This is the end of my workout tonight! All I got to say is it was another BRUTAL one and I liked it! I will for sure use him again!  I felt the burn tonight for sure!
