no more excuses

I like sports, I really do. Once a week I am going to the swimming pool and swim for 45 minutes. And also once a week I am doing my workout at the gym for at least 1 hour. Knowing it´s not that much and I could do a little more I always try to work out one more day in the week. But sometimes there are these days when I have time but am a little lazy and can´t motivate myself to pack my bag and drive to the gym. Nowadays, this also relates to the fact that it is dark early and I prefer to stay in my cosy home at these times. ;) So I took advantage of a sports dvd!

It´s really comforting as I am ready to start immediately. A huge advantage on this dvd is that the programms offered have different time schedules. So even if I have only a little time I can start one item or I can combine different items in a workout. All I need is my yoga mat, a towel, a chair and a bottle of water depending on the programm chosen. So from now on I have no more excuses! ;)

Which sport dvd´s do you exercise at home?

Friday@gym

Today is Friday and it´s finally the end of my working week. Yay! I really always look forward to the friday afternoon and the 2 and a half free days ahead!!! As probably most people do! :) To get rid of all the stress from the week it helps me a lot to go to the gym. As I just picked up again after a while I have done a light training today. Basically I abserved a circuit training, I didn´t want to overexaggerate it... ;) 

So, here is what I exercised:

• warm up 10minutes walking fast on the treadmill
• abductors - 15kilos
• adductors - 15kilos
• chest press - 12,5kilos
• leg lengthening - 15kilos
• leg curl - 15kilos
• stomach - on my own
• stabilizors - on my own
• lat machine - 20kilos
• stomach - 15kilos
• abductors - 20kilos
• adductors - 20kilos
• chest press - 15kilos
• cool down 5 minutes walking on the treadmill

The abductors and adductors are the most important excersises for me, as well as the chest press - this one is sooo good for my back! That´s the reason why I repeat these exercises at the end of one circuit. After the workout I went to the sauna and totally enjoyed the warmth at 80°C - this relaxes me so good!

Do you have a ritual to start into the weekend? I am curious to know :)

 

Wish you a nice weekend!
