Day 18- Chest, shoulders, triceps and abs

Thought id try something different today so i did a home workout instead of going to the gym. My session consisted of the following:
  1. Chest- Dumb bell pressupsBW, three point pressupsBW and legs elevated pressupsBW.
  2. Shoulders- Lateral raiseRB, Front raiseRB and rear lateral raiseRB
  3. Triceps-KickbackRB, tricep extension over headB and pulldownRB.
  4. Abs-25 of the following- Situps with punchesDB, weighted crunchesDB, V sit ups, knees in and outBW, side raisesBW, Side bendDB and plankBW.
Really gave the resistance bands a good go today. They are just as effective as using the dumb bells, my muscles were just as tired from using them as had i been using dumb bells. Considering you can buy the bands from as little as £16 it is definetely worth the purchase.

Im starting to see some changes in my body now aswell, after only three weeks. My shoulders are looking bigger and my arms have toned up a bit and looks like i have increased in size slightly aswell. I definetely feel stronger after only three weeks of training which is great motivation to continue as i have been doing.

TIP: Regulary check your progress through your training programme. There is nothing better than seeing improvements in yourself to keep you motivated to reach your goals. this can be done by comparing how much you you could before and after and perhaps how you are looking or even how you feel.
