Arm Challenge

I am doing a 30 day challenge for myself. I am doing 2 a days of cardio. I do long walks from 2 miles to 6 miles with up and down hills included. The night time cardio is on the elliptical with resistence of 5 right now, by the end I hope to have it to 10. To pass my time on the elliptical I put ona show on Netflix, so there are no commercials to let me get distracted. If I am distracted I am one that will hop right off the workout train. Here is a picture of me really getting into the show Gossip Girl:


On top of doing the cardio, I am doing a 30 day arm challenge. Once a day I do a series of arm exercises. I use P90X Chest/Back, P90X Back/Biceps, P90X Chest, Shoulders, & Triceps. I have set up a schedule for myself to follow. Here is a picture of me today (Day 6). My oldest snapped the picture as I was trying to get the weight into the correct position.


Last but not least of this 30 day challenge is that I work on my back alone every night. I have a couple set exercises that I do every night before bed. These include doing the superman, the swimmer, tricep dips, and a few other with the foam roller. I love my foam roller to iron out my muscles!!

I can't wait to see where this journey takes me!!
