Workout #5 Supersets-Last Time!

Staying with the Superset theme for this workout, I used the following exercises:
  • Forward Lunge/Lat Pull Downs
  • Bulgarian Split Squats/Push Ups
  • Dumbbell Push Press/Cable Rows
  • Tabata-Mt. Climbers
  • Cardio-Level 12, 60/60 on stairclimber
I am doing morning and evening yoga - and some walking on the off-days.  I haven't developed my spring training for off-days yet so they are not officially structured.

Workout #4 Supersets

For the second week of workouts, I am using the other two from Men's Health (originally a 4-day workout but I modified it for my own purposes) plus my a timed set for the Spartacus Workout.  On Monday, I did the following workout (supersets, 3 sets, progression 10-8-6, increasing weights each set) + 1 finisher and then cardio intervals.
  • Squat/Dumbbell Bent Row
  • Deadlift/Barbell Push Press
  • Inclined Push-Ups/Pull-Ups (gravitron)
Tabata: Plank Splits followed by 60/45 intervals at level 12 for 10 rounds.  I have been struggling with my weight of late and will be food journaling over the next weeks to figure out the issue before it gets out of hand.
