Mixing it Up

One hundred push ups program (Week 1, Day 2) 5 sets push ups (6, 8, 6, 6, 12 (max))

Regular crunches (40, 20, 20, 20)

Side Crunches (10 reps) each side

Back Extensions (3x15 reps)

Side plank raise (2 x 15 reps)

One Arm Triceps Kick back (3x12 reps) – 8 lbs (each side)

Lunge & Reach (3x15 reps) – 10 lbs (each side)

Lawnmower (3x12 reps) – 12 lbs (each side)

Side plank hold (about 1 minute each side)

Crunches with leg raise (3x20 reps)

The whole thing took me about 45 minutes, with a quick 5 minute warm up by run in place and some arm stretches. I was drenched in sweat, not sure if the workout was intense enough or it was the weather. Anyway, got all of these done in the morning. It was good to be able to work out in the morning again. And to get some stretching in, I did a quick yoga in the evening before dinner. Mostly just sun salutations, runner's pose, and some stretches. Took only about 15 minutes but I was drenched in sweat.
