Thread: Post your workout of the day

Hopefully this will motivate people to workout more. Whatever exercises you did/are going to do today, post them here. I would recommend also keeping a workout log to keep track of your progress. The point of posting your workouts on here is so we can motivate each other, compare our run times/lifts/etc., discuss/ask questions about the workouts, and hopefully learn some new exercises from each other, all while getting buff

www.crossfit.com has a workout of the day (WOD) 3 times a week. They're great for anyone who is looking for a challenge and/or wants to get ripped. The Navy SEALs use these same workouts if that's any indication. You don't have to do these workouts though, you can post your own.

Alright, this is what I did today:

Ran 1 mile (7:00)

Bench 35s for 15-15-10-10 reps
Bicep curls 25s for 15-12-10-8 reps
Military press 70 bar for 20-15-12-10-12-15 reps
Flys 35s for 10-10-8-8
Push-ups 30-30-30-30-30
Sit-ups 60-60-60-60-60

I will post in here too. Will start tomorrow. Good luck everyone!

OP you're a tank o.0

I'll start tomorrow-- promise.

What's a millitary press? I'll post my workout later today sence I'm at school right now.

You can do them sitting down too, or use barbells instead of a bar.

push ups (regular) 35
push ups (close) 20
pull ups 10-10
Dips 25-25
sit ups 50-50
bicep curls 30s 15
hammer curls 15s 20
standing row 30s 25

(never go a week without working out )

Thought I'd take it easy today so it was Yogo (vinyasa) for me. Of course I ended up all sore and stinky and super jaded.

* Bleh, can't wait for my dojo to open up. Sensei's going to be pissed! ~Yay~.

Yesterday was a rest day so I just did some stretches and meditated. Today I plan on jogging a few miles then doing..

push-ups 25-25-25-20-15
sit-ups 60-60-60-60-60
pull-ups 20-15-15-10-5
bicep curls 25s 20-20-15-15-10
squats 70 bar 15-15-15-10

It was warm today so I did 4 miles (25 minutes) then did 100 situps.

Hmm, I suppose I'll trust you. Although I'm suspicious of the name change...

Just did bi's and forearms today:

Curls
hammer curls
alternate hammer curls
kettlebell cleans
roll ups (using my homemade device.)
bottoms-up cleans
circular cleans
crush curls
oblique twists

Did 3 circuits of the above.

I do this daily + my routine in the gym
20 abs for the V
40 side abs
6 Salutations to the Sun (hatha yoga)
20 push-ups
20 frogs (kundalini yoga)
40 butt lifts

It's really quick & do it while watching tv or sometimes when I wake up.

I go to the gym and do a full workout (every muscle group) monday wednesday friday. tuesday thursday I run for about an hour, nap and go swim for 2 hours (with a coach who makes it extremely intense lol). wish I could swim 6 days a week like I do in the winter right now haha

saturday sunday is my anti workout days where I eat absolute junk food because that's the way champs do it. I don't think i could gain fat if I tried anyways

Thats a workout we did a few days ago

That's awesome, nice to see people swimming. Sounds pretty close to one of my workouts lol

I walked around the golf course 2 times just now, that is my workout of the day. 1 hour walk, and it was 4.6 KM (2.3 1 way, 2.3 the other).

Ab workouts-30 minutes.
2 mile run round the neighborhood.

Today is bike day. 45 miles around the lake!

10 minutes of abs today.
Also a few sets of pushup/pushup variations.

I'll post what I did yesterday

Ran 2mis
---
Cooldown and stretch a bit
pulldowns to work triceps. 10 reps
Bicep curls with an over the head. Like a clean and jerk with one arm... kind of. I don't know what it's called. 10 reps each arm
Bent over flys I think they're called. Bend over and body is parallel to ground. Take weights and push out so you make a --|--. 8 reps
Lunge, pick up weight, and pull up weight to head height. Kind of like push ups. 10 reps
Squat jump things. Touch ground and jump 15 reps
Push ups 20-25 reps

Repeat 3 times

I have no idea what exercises I do, I just kind of remember seeing them done somewhere and go for it, lol

long period, but it is easily solved by eating an easily digested meal as soon as you can after your training, which then stimulates a repair phase in your body. An ideal post training meal should contain easy to digest carbs to replace the muscle's energy stores, as well as some good quality protein to help muscle repair.

Bought some weights yesterday. A set of 2.5# and 5# plates for my dumbell(20# already). Now curling 25#

Would buying a second dumbell be worth it? The only thing I really need 2 weights for are reverse flys (which I have another set of weights for anyway), otherwise I just do hammer curls and single arm rows

I'm thinking of getting a new bar system though. One that uses the springs to hold the wieghts on, because mine right now has screws I have to undo to change weights (I should prob do lunges but don't feel like undewing the screws each time I need to switch as the springs are easier/ faster to switch out wieght)

You also need to make sure you've eaten carbs before it (although not too soon before it for obvious reasons! ) So that your body uses the energy from the carbs, otherwise it would just use muscle.

Alot of women don't eat carbs but also exercise, they may be skinny, but they won't be strong.

Did 500 push-ups today.

Going to run 3 2 mis. Brb, lol

Today I did this routine 5 times throughout the day

15 reps on the bench
*no rest*
10 clapping push-ups
*no rest*
15 shoulder shrugs
*no rest*
10 squats
*no rest*
7 curl ups

Getting back into my P90x workouts. I started slacking off, after I went on vacation, and hadn't picked it back up since. So, I decided to start over from the first week of the program. This is day 3, so I'll start posting here from now on out.

Hopefully I can keep up the drive to stay with it.
