Description: W1/D2: GYM UPPER BODY

Super challenging for a day 2 workout when I haven’t done any upper body workouts in awhile and naturally don’t have a lot of upper body strength. Had to skip some reps and exercises this time.

Ciera

GYM BASED: Day 2! Focus is all on the back & biceps! My fave day💪🏽

We also have cardio today! Depending on your goal you want to get at-least 1-3 sessions of cardio a week! You can choose what to do, it can be running, jogging, going for a walk, swimming, hiking...really anything! Try to get 20-30 min in! It can be done before or after your workout.

Loved the bridge hold overhead pull!! That was awesome! Way too hot to run though so 20 minutes of walking lunges..

W1/D3: GYM Upper Body B

Having this many plant position exercises hurts my wrists a LOT. I find having this many similar exercises to be tedious. I have lots of weights, so maybe I’ll switch it up to the gym workouts sometimes to keep it interesting!

Reverse hyperextensions are very difficult to do when you don’t have access to a bench. But still a great workout!
