Day #002

Welcome to Day 2! (12/30/2012)

After yesterdays "getting back into things" treatment, I spent today a bit sore, but still pushing forward. While I didn't hit the gym again, I did focus today on stretches and walking. I'm going to try and set a format to these daily postings and if I don't post them the "day of" the workout, I should be able to get to them and post my Blog by the following day. Not every day will have a blabbering of words from me, but you'll see my notes and info as things move forward.

Supplements:
  • DUB morning - Burner (2), Muscle (3) and Youth (1)
  • DUB afternoon - Burner (1) and Youth (2)
Stretches (morning):
  • Sitting and leaning to one leg with the other tucked into me. Then switched legs.
  • Standing, reaching down and touching knees, then sliding my hands down as far as I can. So far I'm about 2-3 inches from my ankles.
  •  Ankle and wrist rotations.
  • Holding arms above and behind the head.

Workout: The key was not to burn myself out with day 2, but to maintain and keep active. I am set to go to the gym every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. And then take care of what I can at home when schedules conflict or when needed.

1. Counter push-ups: These are leaning against the kitchen counter at around a 45 degree angle doing push-ups. With my sore back they have been very soothing to help ease me back into exercising.
  • 1st set - 25 (morning)
  • 2nd set - 40 (afternoon)
  • 3rd set - 40 (afternoon)
2. 15lbs Dumbells:
  • 1st set - bicep curl - 20 (reps)
  • 2nd set - spread eagle (over head) - 10
  • 3rd set - bicep curl - 20
  • 4th set - spread eagle - 10
3. Walking:
  • Walk #1 - 15 minutes (morning walk to bus)
  • Walk #2 - 20 minutes (walk from bus stop to home)
