Feeling chesty

 Today was all about the chest and my husband.

I love going to the gym with my husband because he always pushes me to my maximum limits.

Today we focused and chest with a workout that looked like this 

15 min warm up on arc trainer

Bench press 4 sets of 10 reps

Superset with 10 burpees

Seated decline press 3 sets of 12 reps

Seated incline press 3 sets of 12 reps

After these exercises we went over to the cables and did different chest exercises with  cables, here are a few of the variations we did

1 set of 12 reps for every different variation 

Finally finished off with this machine

3 sets of 12 reps

Have a good rest of your hump day!

Ps. Sorry for the overload of photos, it's a rarity to have my photographer(husband) with me.

AND sorry for the horrendous faces mid exercise...I don't go to the gym to look pretty :)

Cardio & Ab Circuit

  Today's Workout:

 I spent half hour on the death machine aka step machine. For those who don't know what I'm talking about..this little beauty right here

My only advice is do not hold the side rails. You will completely defeat the purpose of this machine so get those hands off and pick up your booty.

After the death machine I did a quick cardio abs circuit that looked a little like this...

           Complete each exercise for 60 seconds

 Jump Rope

Mountain climbers

Bicycle crunches

Abdominal twist

Atomic sit up

Knees to elbow 

 Jump Rope

Mountain climbers

Flutter kick

Straight leg raise

Hip raise

 Jump Rope

Mountain climbers

Plank

Left side plank 

Right side plank

After the gym I came home to a beautiful little box on our front porch that contained these goodies..

Perfect post workout snack :)
