Daily Workout - Shoulders and Arms with Total Gym

OK, it's official, I'm back on a roll and feeling good again. I still need to regain some strength and as I found out today "my Cardio". I have been putting off the Cardio for a while during December, no time and poor health has made it hard. Today I did a quick 10 minutes and man was I tired! Granted I pack in about 200 calories burned in the short 10 minutes.

Today I got a good Shoulders and Arms workout in and even did some Stretching and Cardio!

    Daily Workout - When it gets Busy

    It's that time of year again when things get so busy, with all the  shopping, kids events, social gatherings and who knows what else. And then there is all the food and drink and lack of exercise...

    Don't get too worried about it because January 1st is almost here too so what ever bad stuff you do now you can fix then. But just remember the worse you are now the better you are going to have to be in the new year :)

    I try to do what I can and remember all the hard work I have been doing all year long. But, I still like to enjoy all the fun this time of year brings, and it's hard to do if you can't eat anything or don't have time cause you're in the gym all the time.

    Over the last 4 days I did manage to get into the Gym a couple of times and did some Total Gym routines covering my Cardio, Shoulders, Arms and Abs. And I may even just get another one in today?!
