Cardio Round 1…
Weights Round 1…
is where we are going to be doing our first circuit of the day. There will be 4 different exercises we will be doing, 2 of which will be using dumbbell and the other 2 which will be using body weight. This will be a good balance for this workout. Dumbbells help with stabilizing each muscle and isolating them. To challenge yourself, go ahead and limit the amount of breaks you have in between each set.
Cardio Round 2…
For our second round of cardio you can do either the stairmaster or bike for 8 minutes. Utilize this time to keep up the overall intensity of the workout to burn more calories and keep your heart rate up.
Wights Round 2…
The last round will incorporate more dumbbell work along with come cable work. If you want to challenge yourself, and if you also have the space at your gym, you can go ahead and turn this into a circuit as well.
Abs
End the workout with some ab work. Incorporate weights into exercises where you can because this will result in not only a stronger core, but will also result in larger abdominal muscles.
Stretch
To end the workout, stretch out those muscles to prevent soreness and injury. Recovery is the most important part after working out, so make sure to take care of your body and it will take care of you. Stretch it out for a total of 10 – 15 minutes depending on how much time you have.
