Daily Workout - Back in Home Gym

About a week ago I started cutting down on my food intake a bit. Over the summer I put on a few pounds and unfortunately none of it was muscle!! I'm not talking about a lot of fat but enough that now that I am heading off to Maui in less than a month - I want to get back to a solid 175 pounds. Right now I'm a bit over and I could stand to put just a bit more muscle back on. So for the next 4 weeks I have to stay focused. It's good to have goals and rewards.

  • Elliptical Warmup - 12 minutes
  • Wide Bar Pull Downs (In Front of Head).
  • Narrow Bar Pull Downs (In Front of Head).
  • Standing Bar Rows.
  • Abs: Side Crunches
  • Misc. Stretching

Total workout time: About 1 hour.

Daily Workout - Elliptical

Not much to report today, I'm still kind of sore from my Upper Body and Lower Body workouts, so I just did some Elliptical Cardio today. That's OK, it's just as important to give your muscles some time to rest, as it is to workout your muscles!
