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:

-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.

5 Most Used Fitness Apps on My Phone

I have been using fitness apps on some sort of apple device since I got my iPad mini in 2012. I didn't have a smart phone yet, so the first fitness apps were initially downloaded to the iPad. Some of those I still use. Here's a run down of my most used fitness apps on my phone. (Side note, most used doesn't necessarily mean best. They just seem to be what I have found most useful throughout life phases.) Runkeeper Initially, I used this as my running log in college. Since then, I don't run much, but I do more walking and bike rides. I like to use this to record my cardio and weight tracking. I like the goal setting, my stats, and shoe tracker are all parts of the app I have used heavily at some point. As a running coach, I also like to use to find exact distances of team routes using GPS because the distances are generally the most consistent compared to other distance apps. Fitbit The first Fitbit I had was one my mom got from work. It was a Fitbit Charge, and I used i...

2024 Workout Logs

2024 was another year of transition.   Transitioning back to who I want to be and refocusing on what I choose to focus on.  One of those focuses being on fitness.  I love working out, and have a huge sense of accomplishment afterwards.  Especially when I'm working out when I didn't want to or making progress that I'd been working towards, but had originally felt out of reach.  With refocusing this blog on workouts & travel, I'm going to pull in my content from other locations.  My future workout logs will be on this blog.  Linked below are my workout logs for 2024 that I had been posting on Medium.
