Roll* Bounce* Rock* Skate!

So today I am going to try to implement something a bit new...None of it is totally new for me, but it will be a new set of things to do as a grouping.

Roll-Bike Ride
Bounce-Walk fast
Rock-Lift with heavy music
Skate-Well that's obvious.

I'm thinking I may try to incorporate this atleast once a week, or 3 X weekly on my lifting days.

Today is upper body and I am going to stick with my usual way of doing things for this.....

Reps-12-10-8-6-12 with graduating weights.......I usually start at 5lbs or 8 lbs depending on the exercise and move up to 12 or 15

Such as
Bicep curls: 12 reps @ 8lbs
10 reps @ 10lbs
8 reps @ 12 lbs
6 reps @ 15 lbs.
Hammer curls 12 reps @ 8lbs.

That would be my bicep routine.....Then I would move on..........I generally don't stop in between sets and if I do it is for no longer than 30 secs...........When I move to the next body part then I will wait 45-60 secs.


So that I don't hit a plateau I will switch things up after next week since that would be about 4 wks at the same stuff. I have gone up in my weights but I will also switch up the exercises.

The ways I will do that will be...

*** changing around the order (such as in the example above...I would do the hammer curls for the bulk of it and then regular bicep curls for the last)

*** Doing 10 and then one set to failure (this is one that worked really well for me in the past....Doing one set of ten reps....waiting for 30 secs and then lifting a heavier weight to failure, no more than 12 reps)

*** Using machines....Usually I HATE machines but eventually I will add some in to mix things up.

I'll post later what I actually did for today.
