Daily Workout - Shoulders in Home Gym

Another evening workout. I often find myself working out later in the evening as my days can fill up really fast and it seems like the only time I have is after the kids go to bed and I finish up a few loose ends around the house.

What ever works for you is what's important! I've tried to do early morning workouts but I'm just not a morning person.

• Warmup: Elliptical for 10 Minutes.
• Smith Machine Shoulder Press with Straight Bar.
• Dumbbell Shoulder Flies in Three Positions: Forward, Side, Behind.
• Upright Row Raises with Pulley.
• Shoulder Shrugs with Smith Machine Straight Bar.
• Misc. Stretching.
• Abs: Forward Stretch Rolls.

Total workout time: About 1 hour.

Daily Workout - Legs in Home Gym

Early in the day I had some extra time and needed a short break from some work related phone calls so I hit the punching bag for a little over 10 minutes. It's a great way to get a nice overal upper body workout, relieve some stress, and burn around 200 calories off.

 

Today was leg day so for my leg workout I usually start things off with 10 minutes of elliptical, again another quick 200 calories burned up while getting warmed up.

• 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.
• Abs: Cruch routine.

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