Daily Workout - Arms with Total Gym

I'm back at home and back in my own gym with all my usually gear. Todays workout is the last of my upper body using the Total Gym. My hand is almost back to 100% so it really make the workouts a lot smoother. I just wish I could get rid of my ongoing shoulder pain in my right shoulder. I've had that for almost a year now so I don't think it's going away any time soon. I'm pretty sure it's some torn cartilage as I did it doing some MMA wrestling. Well enough whining for now...
  • 10 Minutes Elliptical.
  • Biceps: Lying Down Curls with Total Gym. (3 Sets with an increase in the incline each time)
  • Biceps: Seated Curls with Total Gym. (2 Sets with a increase in the incline each time)
  • Triceps: Seated Overhead Extension with the Total Gym.
  • Triceps: Lying Down Extension with the Total Gym.
  • Triceps: Rear Extension with the Total Gym.

Daily Workout - Arms Home Gym

I did another late evening workout again - worked all day... I have had some tendon pain in my right bicep for some time that doesn't want to go away, I had a similar pain in my left arm but more in the upper forearm and it lasted for several months but now it feel great. It's amazing how one muscle can interfere with your workout so much.

The only way I know to overcome this is to start out really light until the muscle loosens up and then make sure not to overwork it which can be hard because once it warms up it usually feels prety good. You'll pay for it later if you go to heavy!

  • 10 Minutes Elliptical.
  • Biceps: Dumbbell Curls Standing - Starting light - Five sets.
  • Triceps: Seated Overhead Single Dumbbell Extensions.
  • Triceps: Pull Downs with Curl Bar.
  • Abs: Crunches and Leg Raises.

 Total workout time: About 1 hour.

Daily Workout - Quick One at Home

I am off to San Francisco for some work I'm doing with my Mac Video Training business. I had some time this morning to do a quick workout, it's hard to get workouts in when on the road doing business even if you plan for it, it sometimes just doesn't happen! Had enough time to do a 10 minute warmup and some arms - biceps and triceps.
