Description: Week 4 Day 3

Increase weight after every set. 

Stand with feet slightly apart, and your back straight. 

Your arms should be hanging at your sides about a foot away from your body. 

Face your palms inward holding a dumbbell in each hand.

As you exhale, raise the dumbbells at your sides, keeping your elbows slightly bent.

Continue to raise dumbbells until they are level with your shoulders. Inhale and lower arms slowly to the starting position. This completes one rep.

Lateral Raises

Increase weight after every set. Stand tall with your feet hip-width apart. Hold a dumbbell in each hand in front of your thighs. Your palms should face toward you.

Raise your arms up in front of you. Pause when the dumbbells reach shoulder height. Then slowly return the weights to the starting position.

Front Raises

Cable Tricep Extension

Grasp a straight bar cable attachment that is attached to a low pulley with a pronated (palms facing your thighs) grip that is slightly less than shoulder width. 

The bar should be resting on top of your thighs. Your arms should be extended with a slight bend at the elbows and your back should be straight. This will be your starting position.

Use your side shoulders to lift the cable bar as you exhale. The bar should be close to the body as you move it up. Continue to lift it until it nearly touches your chin. Tip: Your elbows should drive the motion. As you lift the bar, your elbows should always be higher than your forearms. Also, keep your torso stationary and pause for a second at the top of the movement.

Lower the bar back down slowly to the starting position. Inhale as you perform this portion of the movement.

Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

Upright Row with Cable Machine

Standing Leg Raise Core

A very important part of using the Stairmaster, as a matter of fact doing any sort of exercise, is to maintain your form. This will make sure that you avoid any sort of injuries and that you get the most benefit out of your workout. One thing to remember is to take long, natural strides to mimic the motion of actually walking up stairs. This will help to work out the glutes and thighs with a full range of motion.

As you continue your workout, try to increase the intensity and pick up the pace. This will assure you get the best workout you can and it will cause you to challenge yourself as you progress with the workout. You can increase the intensity little by little every time you use the Stairmaster to work out, which will start to improve your cardiovascular system.
