My Gym Workout – Happy 1st of December!

Glasses, Champagne, Toast, Celebration

Hello FitFam, 

Happy 1st of Decemeber to all of you! 

December will probably be a busy month for most of us since the holidays are always crazy and busy and other of us may have to endure some horrible winter weather. Yuck! Definitely not looking forward to that. Anyhow, today John could not make it this morning for his workout, so he said he would go after work today, hopefully he does. He didn’t confirm whether or not he attended yesterday, but for my sake, I hope he did because I don’t send workouts for fun, lol. He did say he would be showing up tomorrow morning, so we shall see. Tomorrow will be a very busy day for me, as always. So, I may or may not be available to post my workout and other content. As you all are aware, I take weekends off away from the blog, but I may still come by and do some things since I have to write another article. Today’s workout was simple, heavy and actually was a personal best for me.

 

My workout:

Warm up:

 
  • Treadmill: 12 minutes, 3.6 speed, no incline

Workout Session:

Pyramid (leg press):

  • 1 x 12, no added weight
  • 1 x 12, 50lb
  • 1 x 12, 90lb
  • 1 x 12, 140lb
  • 1 x 12, 180lb
  • 1 x 10, 230lb
  • 1 x 8, 270lb
  • 1 x 4, 360lb
  • 1 x 4, 360lb

Between sets of leg press, I was doing Seated Russian Twist:

  • 9 x 30 with a 25lb weight plate. I have thought about using a 45lb weight plate.. to see if I can manage it, that will be another goal. 

My last exercise of the day today:

  • Dumbbell squat to shoulder press: 4 x 10, 40lb

I PR’d in my leg press, my new all time high is 360lb, next goal is 400lb. I thought I would only 1RM it because it was heavy, but I managed to get 4 good reps, almost 5. My dumbbell squat to shoulder press was a new PR’d as well, I increased my weight by 20lb, so that was exciting, hopefully my next goal will be to hit 60lb 🙂 Overall good workout.

You can assume I have a love for fitness & a love for Wonderwoman -- both assumptions are correct. I am an ACSM certified personal trainer of 8+ years -- I currently reside in Ohio and live a simplistic life at the age of 29. If I am not lifting, I am eating, sleeping, traveling, exploring, or movie watching. I recently moved during a pandemic, now I am focused on self care (self love), building a business of my own in personal training, becoming a professional blogger, starting a podcast and doing things that make me happy! I am a sister, daughter, and loyal friend --- I love everyone's dog and I am on a mission to pet as many dogs as possible everywhere I go! LOL. My mission is to talk health (physical/mental), design programming, motivational speak, learn, grow, prosper, build others and make as many people smile as possible because I want nothing more than to be the change I seek in the world.
