Sorry for the lack of updates, I was traveling and now back at it again.

While traveling, I did 2 cardio day's + 1 weight lifting session for Back & Biceps. Another session today:

Blogger's 12 Week Body Transformation Challenge - Day 15: Legs & Abs:


Superset:
Leg Extensions:
3 sets to failure in 18-20 full and partial reps

Seated Leg Curl:
3 sets to failure in 12-15 reps

Superset:
Hack Squat:
4 sets to failure in 50 reps

Standing Leg Curl:
4 sets to failure in 18-20 reps


Standing Calf Raises:
1-2 warm-up sets of 8-10 reps
4 sets to failure in 12 reps

Hanging Leg Raises:
3 sets to failure in 20 reps

Low intensity cardio: 25min

Starting today, I'm changing things a little bit on the cardio side. I've only had low intensity cardio sessions so far, but starting tomorrow I'll do my first HIIT session for 15-20minutes.

If you're not familiar with the concept, you can read more about it here: http://www.teenbodybuilding.com/justin6.htm

I'll be doing 2 HIIT sessions per week, rest of the aerobic sessions will remain as low intensity cardio. Every week I'll also do 4 weight training sessions.

I didn't see much change in my bodyweight this week so I'm amping things up a bit (also means, I'm lowering my calorie intake and cut out more carbs).

More to come tomorrow.. now off to preparing for today's leg session! C ya!15.80 rating - Read in G+

Blogger's 12 Week Body Transformation Challenge - Day 2: First training day!

Time to hit the gym for the first time on this challenge! Today it's going to be Chest & Abs (going to hit the gym in the evening!):

Warm-up cardio: 10 min
Barbell Bench Press: 4 sets - 8 reps - 80% 1RM - 90 sec rest bs (between sets)
Dumbbell Incline Press: 3 sets - 10 reps - 75% 1RM - 60 sec
Cable Crossovers: 4 sets - 12 reps - 70% 1RM - 60 sec
Decline Dumbbell Fly: 5 sets - 8 reps - 70% 1RM - 30 sec
Push Ups: 2 sets - Max - Bodyweight - 90 sec
Hanging Leg Raises: 5 sets - 12 reps - Bodyweight - 60 sec
Rope Crunches: 3 sets - 8 reps - 70% 1RM - 60 sec
Cool-down Cardio: 15 min

1 RM = one rep max, so if 100kg would be your max bench for one rep, 70% 1RM would mean you do the exercise with 70kg. You can use this calculator to find out your rep max: http://www.exrx.net/Calculators/OneRepMax.html
