Daily Workout - Chest in Home Gym

Not much to say about todays workout, still fighting a bit of a cold that is making me feel a bit non-motivated about doing workouts, but the best thing to do is just get in the gym and start doing something...

  • Warmup: Punching Bag for 10 minutes.
  • Bench Press with Smith Machine.
  • Pulley Flies.
  • 3 Stage Pushups: Planche, Extended, and Regular. (Back seemed OK with this)
  • Misc. Stretching.

Total workout time: About 1 hour.

Daily Workout - Legs at Fitness World

I skipped a day yesterday - while kind of. I shot another YouTube Video that I will be posting in a bit... While making the video I did a pretty good workout showing off the Total Gym and a variety of exercises that I do on the Total Gym.

Today I had to do a few errands in town so I hit my local Fitness World. I do have the equipment I need to do legs at home but Fitness World has a way more!

Daily Workout - Arms - Total Gym

Yesterday was BC day (British Columbia Day) and I spent the day having some fun. I went out with the family to Kawkawa lake near Hope BC, we only spent 4 hours there as we had to come back for dinner with some friends of ours. They are Japanese and they made us some really great authentic food.

So today I was back at the routine and after a day off with much food and drink it was much needed.

  • 10 Minutes Elliptical. (Earlier in the day - split workout)
  • Biceps: Lying Down Curls with Total Gym. (2 Sets with an increase in the incline each time)
  • Biceps: Seated Curls with Total Gym. (2 Sets with a increase in the incline each time)
  • Triceps: Seated Overhead Extension with the Total Gym.
  • Triceps: Lying Down Extension with the Total Gym.
  • Triceps: Rear Extension with the Total Gym.

Total workout time: About 45 minutes.

Daily Workout - Shoulders with Total Gym in Home Gym

I missed yesterdays workout because I was up at 4am in the morning in order to get to a Rogers Cellular and get in line for an iPhone 4!! And I got one :) I got a 32GB iPhone 4 and it's awesome, well worth the early start to my day. I did end up waiting around at the Rogers store till about 2pm because the activation part took all day, I guess every Rogers store employe was trying to activate iPhone 4's all across the country!

One really nice perk with the iPhone 4 is it has a much better camera so hopefully I will have a bit better photos for you as I usually use my iPhone to take quick photos when I'm in the gym.

So today I am all rested and back in the gym...

  • 10 Minutes Elliptical.
  • Total Gym - Seated Shoulder Press.
  • Total Gym - Reverse Shoulder Raises (Lying on Back Upside-down).
  • Total Gym - Seated Shoulder Raises (Front to Back).
  • Total Gym - Front Seated Shoulder Raises.
  • Total Gym - Abs: Seated Side Twists in Forward Position.
  • Barbells - Shrugs.
  • Misc. Stretching.

  • Total workout time: About 1 hour.
