Daily Workout - Shoulders in Home Gym Finally!

I finally got back into the gym today and did a some what long and drawn out shoulder workout. Mostly because it seems like when I take a bunch of days off, it seems hard to really go hard. I find I have to work into it a bit. It was a good workout even though it did take a while!

  • Warmup: Elliptical for 10 Minutes.
  • Shoulder Press with Barbells.
  • Barbell Shoulder Flies in Three Positions: Forward, Side, Behind.
  • Upright Row Raises with Pulley.
  • Shoulder Shrugs with Smith Machine Straight Bar.
  • Misc. Stretching.
  • Abs: Misc Crunches & Leg Raises.

Total workout time: About 1.5 hours.

Mini Vacation in Whistler BC

It's been a while since I posted anything, I was away in Whistler BC with my wife on a mini vacation for a couple of days and unfortunately the place we stayed at didn't have any workout facilities! I guess it made my get-away more relaxing! We did do a fair bit of walking and shopping but it was counteracted with a bit too much eating and drinking!

Now that I'm back home, I have some catching up to do...

Here are some pictures of the trip

Daily Workout - Chest in Home Gym

Not much to say about todays workout, still fighting a bit of a cold that is making me feel a bit non-motivated about doing workouts, but the best thing to do is just get in the gym and start doing something...

  • Warmup: Punching Bag for 10 minutes.
  • Bench Press with Smith Machine.
  • Pulley Flies.
  • 3 Stage Pushups: Planche, Extended, and Regular. (Back seemed OK with this)
  • Misc. Stretching.

Total workout time: About 1 hour.
