Workout

I <3 my trainer.

The man knows how to kick my butt and motivates me without raising his voice. Today's workout was a strength training session that clocked in a little over an hour. Loved every single lactic acid inducing minute of it.

Here's my strength workout for the week, to be repeated 2 times on my own.  Most of these names are nicknames I've never head before for exercises I've done.  I guess everyone has their own twist, right?

Core:

1. "Thin tummy" x10-12 Rep
2. Up slow / down slow x12-15R
3. Russian twists x12-15R
4. Side bends on the Roman chair x10-12R
5. Toes to the sky x12R
6. Plank with limb extensions x5-8R

Upper body:

1. Flutters 
   a. Thumbs up x10R
   b. Thumbs down x10R
2. Scarecrows 
   a. Against the wall x10R
   b. On the floor x10R
3. French press x10-12R
4. Bench dips x10-12R
5. Hammer Curls x10-12R
6. Barbell curls x10R
7. Half rep prone row x10-12R
8. Seated row x10-12R

The plan for the week is 2 more days of strength training (for a total of 3) and 4-6 days of cardio (30+ minutes per session).  And yoga twice.  

Oh, and keeping my calories in check, because it's T minus 41 days till I'm wearing an itty bitty bikini and camping on a beach in St John.
