Make this year yours

A little late on the post but happy New Years everyone! Let 2014 be your year. 

Start the new year by setting some goals. If you're someone who rarely works out or hits the gym start with slightly easier goals such as:

-hit the gym at least 3 days a week

-lose "blank" many pounds

Before you know it, you'll be in a rhythm and won't even think about getting out of bed and working it. It'll become habitual.

Make somebody hold you accountable. A workout partner does wonders. For a while, I was lifting with random friends of mine who didn't necessarily lift all that often. It was cool and all, but most of time time I found that I had to push them just to simply even complete sets. When Michael and I got together I knew he was the one (in a completely straight way). Not only did I never have to tell him to stop slacking off, but many times he'd be the one pushing me. We push each other, and that is why we've seen the results we have. All this being said, find somebody to help you reach your goals, and help them reach theirs. Just be careful who you pick. 

Today's lift that I hit

Quad set (heavy) 5 sets

Straight bar curls- 8 reps 

Skull crushers- 8 reps

Alternating dumbell curls- 8 reps

Straight bar push downs- 8 reps

Quadset- 5 sets

Preacher curls- 20 reps

Bench dips- 20 reps

Reverse curls- 20 reps

Straight bar push downs- 20 reps

After this do one burnout set of straight bar curls (28 method) and one burnout set of tricep push downs (28 method)

-28 method = 7 reps regular, 7 reps very slow, 7 reps only bottom to middle, 7 reps middle to top

For the ladies 

-10 burpees

-30 squats

-15 lunges each leg

-30 crunches

-50 jumping jacks

-45 second plank (suck stomach in while planking)

Repeat all these 3 times and hit at least 20-30 minutes of cardio 

All this being said make this year yours. It really is up to you, you can accomplish anything as long as you know you can do it and are willing put in the work.
