Daily Workout - Quick One at Home

I am off to San Francisco for some work I'm doing with my Mac Video Training business. I had some time this morning to do a quick workout, it's hard to get workouts in when on the road doing business even if you plan for it, it sometimes just doesn't happen! Had enough time to do a 10 minute warmup and some arms - biceps and triceps.

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 Again - Arms - Total Gym

Today I started something a little different... I usually do an entire leg stretching routine but I seem to have hit a plateau and I'm not getting anymore extension in my stretching? So today I only did a few of my stretching exercises and worked them much deeper. My thoughts here are less is more, and see if deeper stretching less often will work better or at least get me past this plateau.

  • 10 Minutes Elliptical. (Earlier in the day - split workout)
  • Biceps: Lying Down Curls with Total Gym. (3 Sets with an increase in the incline each time)
  • Biceps: Seated Curls with Total Gym. (2 Sets with a decrease 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.
  • Abs: Crunches and Leg Raises.
  • Misc Stretching.

Total workout time: About 1 hour.

Daily Workout - Arms Home Gym

Well the back continues to get better each day, I'm almost back to 100% now! Today I didn't do any yard work - thank goodness!

It was a hot one today and the house heated up to the point where it makes working out difficult, at least not very comfortable. I find I just have to slow things down a bit and give myself a few more breaks during my workouts when it's above average temperature.

  • 10 Minutes Elliptical.
  • Biceps: Dumbbell Curls Standing.
  • Biceps: Pulley Curls Standing.
  • Triceps: Seated Overhead Single Dumbbell Extensions.
  • Triceps: Pull Downs with Curl Bar.
  • Abs: Crunches and Leg Raises.

 Total workout time: About 1 hour.
