Day 022 - Consistency in the gym
Warm-up, weights, and stretch 
|
|
WARM-UP, WEIGHTS, STRETCH. Warm up with light jogging and calisthenics. If you're at the gym, try a 10 minute program on a treadmill or stationary bike. Just be sure that the warmup is nice and easy. Then do 3 sets of each of the following exercises: pushups, bent rows with a light barbell, crunches, back extensions and bodyweight squats.You should be increasing the number of reps you do in each exercise (if you started with 8-10 reps in the first week, try to work up to 12-15 reps this week). To be sure you're using correct form, consult a trainer certified by the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Choose stretches different from the ones you used last week but that target the same body parts.For proper stretching technique, consult a certified athletic trainer or physical therapist or a good book like Bob Anderson's "Stretching."
