So now the Christmas and New Year celebrating and over eating is out of the way it's time for me to change focus.
My training from mid October to mid December centred around getting stronger and adding muscle. I gained 10 lbs in total, 7lbs being muscle.
However, I used a body part split using more volume instead of training my whole body in one session and ended up feeling tight and immobile. It served a purpose, but now it's time to get more serious.
I'm not going to follow a specific Turbulence Training program due to equipment available at my gym, but most importantly due to past injuries and muscle imbalances.
I will however be using the Turbulence Training principles; short intense workouts using supersets followed by interval training instead of long boring cardio. warm up
Todays Workout
Warm up
Mobility and activation work.
A1. Dumbbell split squat- I haven't done these for a LONG time and found them difficult.
A2. Incline dumbbell bench press.
B1. Side plank - I really need to build up the endurance on my left side.
B2. Dumbbell row.
C1. Fit ball leg curls.
C2. Mountain climbers
Followed by dumbbell swings Tabata style; 20 seconds on 10 seconds rest x 8 rounds.
I also started Dax Moy's Elimination Diet. Did it for 2 weeks at the start of December and got rid of my coffee 'addiction'.
This time I will complete 30 days of the diet.
New year and a fitter, leaner, healthier me : )
