Daily Workout - Arms with Total Gym

I'm back at home and back in my own gym with all my usually gear. Todays workout is the last of my upper body using the Total Gym. My hand is almost back to 100% so it really make the workouts a lot smoother. I just wish I could get rid of my ongoing shoulder pain in my right shoulder. I've had that for almost a year now so I don't think it's going away any time soon. I'm pretty sure it's some torn cartilage as I did it doing some MMA wrestling. Well enough whining for now...

Daily Workout - Legs in Home Gym

I was away in Victoria for work related reasons so I was not really able to do any fitness related activities other than a fair bit of walking. Now that I'm back home it's back at it. Today I got in the Gym and did a nice Leg Workout. It's starting to really turn in to fall where I live so I'll have to be careful not to get into hibernation mode :) Over the fall and winter I tend to put on a few pounds but that's OK it helps me stay warm and it's not like I walk around with my shirt off all the time :)

  • Elliptical Warmup - 10 Minutes.
  • Squats with Smith machine.
  • Calf Raises: with Smith machine.
  • Leg Extensions: Bench with leg attachment.
  • Leg Curls: Bench with leg attachment.
  • Misc. lower body stretching.

Total workout time: About 1 hour done in my home gym.

Daily Workout - Back to Legs in Home Gym

I finally got a Leg workout in! When I get busy and don't have as much time for my workouts, I tend to drop legs. I do this mainly because my legs build muscle very easily and I also get a decent leg workout from all the Elliptical that I do during my warmups... So today I actually did a full-fledged legt workout :)

  • Elliptical Warmup - 12 Minutes.
  • Squats with Smith Machine.
  • Calf Raises with Smith Machine.
  • Leg Extensions with Leg Extension attachment.
  • Leg Curls with Leg Curl attachment.
  • Misc. lower body stretching.

Total workout time: About 1 hour.
