Well, after a three month absence from writing about my workouts, I'm back... sort of. I'm about to leave on a business trip so I will be absent again for a few weeks before I get back to regular posts. But I will give a brief overview of what I have been doing.
Probably the biggest reason for my absence is my ankle injury. For about two weeks I didn't do anything, but then I started to do mostly upper body workouts. But then I just got busy and ended up not writing. That is something I regret because I have made a lot of good progress in different areas of my fitness.
Here is a basic workout week.
Sunday - Tennis
Monday - Off Day, or Stretching
Tuesday - Resistance Training
Wednesday - Tennis
Thursday - Yoga or Stretching
Friday - Resistance Training
Saturday - Off Day, or Stretching
That was how a basic week went. Then, in July I got back into Pickle-Ball with a different friend who came back from the United States. So, I was able to make Monday Pickle-Ball day. But there were days when tennis got rained out so I would do a resistance workout instead. On all resistance days, I would of course do Abs after the main routine, and the Tai Cheng Flow. But the Tai Chen Flow sort of got phased out in and Shoulder Opening Yoga took its place.
As far as programs, when I started back after my injury, I went with Body Beast, trying several of the Build and Bulk routines in a circuit. Then I started the Hammer and Chisel Program. I have done all of the full routines except for one, Chisel Power, which is in the deluxe section. I haven't do the shorter routines like the 15 minute Cardio or the 15 minute Leg routines. But I did the 10 Minute Ab Chisel just the other day. That is one that I will be doing again. Most of the ab routines I did where from the ChaLEAN Extreme Program: Ab Burner, Extreme Abs, Extreme Core Circuit, and I've Got Abs are the ones I used the most. But I did to the Ab routine from Body Beast and P90X3 once or twice.
From now, I will post the worksheets I filled in for most of the routines I did the past three months. The dates are all over the place, but you can get the gist of what I did.
