Workout Tues 27 Jan 2015

After doing my yoga challenge this afternoon, I headed to the gym.

Today was lower body day and my programme was as follows:

Workout time:  2:50 pm - 4:10 pm

1.  Elliptical trainer - 10 mins - 0.90 km

2.  Leg extension - 3 x 12 - 10 kg

3.  Leg press - 4 x 12 - 37.5 kg

4.  Seated calf raise - 4 x 12 - 30 kg

5.  Lying leg curl - 3 x 12 - 15 kg

6.  Stiff-legged deadlift - 3 x 12 - 15 kg

7.  Standing oblique crunches - 6 x 12 - 8 kg (did this using a kettlebell)

8.  Weighted glute bridge - 3 x 12 - 5 kg (did this using a weight plate while resting my back on the rounded side of a Bosu ball)

9.  Walking lunges - 3 x 12 - 10 kg (2 x 5 kg weight plates)

The weighted glute bridge was quite uncomfortable because of the placement of the weight plate, and this should probably be done with a barbell.  Since this was my first attempt at this exercise, I didn't want too heavy a weight as I wanted to keep correct form.  I shall be trying this with a 10 kg barbell in future.
