Daily Workout - Back and Shoulders with Total Gym

 

I took the Sunday off which is kind of normal as it's usually reserved as a family day. Once in a while I'll get a bit of cardio in if I'm lucky. So today I found myself working at home doing some file encoding for my Mac Video Training business and while I wait for videos to export, there's not much to do so in between is as good a time as any to do my workout!

Today was Back day but since I had a bit of extra time between encoding I did my Shoulders also. I'm using my Total Gym this week which I find to be one of my favorite workout tools (I hope to talk more about the Total Gym in detail either in a YouTube Video or a dedicated Blob Post).

    Daily Workout - MMA and Total Gym Chest

     

    I didn't make it to my morning Strength & Conditioning at my MMA Gym, but I did get to the one hour of technical training and then a second hour of sparring. Today we worked on BJJ (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu) and then "rolled" it in to some more BJJ sparring which is actually referred to as "Rolling". Not really a lot of punching, it's more like wrestling but with chokes and submission moves like Arm Bars and Kimura's.

    Since I didn't make the Strength & Conditioning class and I still had a bit of energy left in me, I quickly went home and did a 35 minute Chest workout on my Total Gym. I really noticed the lack of strength after doing two hours of MMA.

    • Muay Thai & MMA Technical Class: 1 hour.
    • Muay Thai & MMA Sparing Class: 1 hour.
    • Total Gym - Chest: 35 minutes.
    • Abs: Tortal Gym Side Twists.
    • Misc. Stretching
