Friday Arms

This was the workout this evening before dinner ...

10 Eccentric Push-ups - These are great if you can't do a full push-up.  Start in a plank position or with your knees on the ground and arms extended.  Lower yourself to the ground and assist yourself back up.  This can help you build into a full push-up.

10 Dumbbell Rows

10 Pull-ups/Chin-ups - Chin-ups are easier than pull-ups.  If you can't do either, grab a towel.  Extend your arms overhead with one end of the towel in each hand.  Now, pull the towel down with resistance as though you are trying to pull yourself upwards.  Don't knock it till ya try it!! 😉 It's harder if you pull the towel down behind your head.  This targets those small posture muscles even more.

Rest for 45 seconds

10 Dumbbell Hammer Curls

10 Dumbbell Overhead Presses

10 Close-grip Push-ups - If you cannot do a pushup, find a wall.  Stand about 3 feet away from it and lean forward with your hands against the wall and your body straight and at an angle to the wall.  Now, lower yourself against the wall and push yourself back up.

Rest for 45 seconds

10 Leg Lifts

10 Supermans

Rest for 45 seconds and repeat the entire series of moves 2 more times.


This workout isn't original with me.  I found it on Human Fit Project.  

It wore me out! 😓


Sandra made white bean potato soup for dinner.  We love that dish.  Add a little garlic toast and it's really good!!
