February was...February. It wasn't as snowy as usual, but it was a slog at school and in life. This included the gym....

As you may notice, all the workouts at the Y were leg workouts and on Saturdays. I ended up doing dumbbell workouts at home the other days. Monday, Wednesday, Friday were focused on arms and Tuesday/Thursday were full body. I used my 8 lb dumbbells for most of these workouts. Some Tuesdays/Thursdays, I used my 4 lb dumbbells.
MWF:
Circuit: 3 rounds, 10 reps each
-Bicep Curl
-Military Press
-Standing Tricep Extension
-Bent-Over Fly
-Bent-Over Row into Tricep Extension
T/Th:
Circuit: 3 Rounds, 10 reps each
-Bicep Curl and Static Lunges (Compound Movement)
-Romanian deadlift into calf raise
-Squat into shoulder press
This wasn't a record setting month in the slightest, but I'm proud that I still did the workout every morning. Were they in the living room while my son at breakfast at the table? Yes. But they happened.
