The year ends on steady success
The regime has now advanced, but is still manageable for this ol' slug!
CARDIO - daily on treadmill or bike: 5 minute warm up (heart rate around 100) followed by 15 minutes with heart rate elevated to no less than 115, usually around 123. Twice weekly do 20 minutes on Elliptical.
STRENGTH - alternate lower body one day, upper body the next over six days.
Seated Leg Press - 3 sets of 10 repetitions. (120 pounds; seat pin 4.5)
Leg Curl - 2 sets of 10 repetitions. (45 pounds; seat pin 2.5)
Inner Thigh - 2 sets of 10 repetitions. (100 pounds)
Outer thigh - 2 sets of 10 repetitions. (120 pounds)
Vertical Bench - 2 sets of 10 repetitions. (25 pounds; seat pin 7.5)
Vertical Row - 3 sets of 10 repetitions. (35 pounds; seat pin 5.5)
Tricep Press Down - 2 sets of 10 repetitions. (25 pounds)
Bicep Curls - 2 sets of 10 repetitions. (8 pound dumbbells)
CORE - daily
45 degree angle bench planks - (Three 10 second holds, after 3-5 "sit-ups")
Supermans on green ball - (Two sets of 10 (5 on each side))
Lower back extension - (2 sets of 10 repetitions) 45 pounds
AB Machine - 2 sets of 10 repetitions. (90 pounds; seat pin 4.5)
STRETCH - daily
Upper back
Triceps
Glute/lower back
Hamstring
Quad
Chest
At the end of November or so, we increased my favourite three to three sets from two. Looking for weight increases in the new year, and increasing set numbers across the board.
December marks the first time missing days - Christmas Eve and Christmas. But I had no fear that I would quit. Fear of quitting has been the stick keeping me to the 6 day per week schedule. Another milestone to lose that fear! Goodbye 2019! Hello roaring 20's!
