Nicholas saldanha 8 week workout blog

 I just finished my first exam and i was absolutely mentally and physically dead. I took a nap but decided to do a workout. I did a workout that was composed of bench press 95 lbs for 10 reps, lat pull downs (25 lbs) 10 reps, double arm isolated curls curls (45 lbs) , 5 reps of hammer curls (15 lbs), back over rows (45 lbs), shoulder press(45 lbs) and all of this was done from 3 sets. My workout was 1 hour.

 I did workout yesterday may 6 was just too tiered to put it in the blog. I wake up early and decided to do a workout with my girlfriend and then study for the rest of the day since i am nearing exams. I started with chest pull downs on a machine with 55 lbs for 3 sets of 10 reps, then moved onto back rows with 55 lbs and then, 115x2 all this added up to 3 sets of 10 reps. I then did shoulder press with 55 lbs for 3 sets of 10 reps. I then isolated arms by doing a tricep machine for 45 lbs for 3 sets of 10 reps with bicep machine with 55 lbs, for 3 sets of 10 reps. I then did core exercises like mountain climbers, leg raiss, plank, curl up for 15 min in total. I came to the gym at 7:58 (8:00 o’clock) and finished at 9:15 exactly.

 For my first workout of this week i decided to do a 1 hour video with my girlfriend. I focused on a full body workout as she focused on lower body. I started with doing isolated double hand curls 70 lbs for 3 sets of 10, i then did bench press for 2 sets of 10 once at 95 lbs and then 115 lbs, then i did lat raises 3 sets of 20 with a 25 lbs plate, then i did single arm hammer curls 15 lbs, then isolated and elevated leg lunges with a 25 lbs dumbell 3 sets of 10, i then did normal lunges up and down my driveway with the same 25 lbs weight for 3 sets. (UNFORTUNATELY MY PHONE DIED MID RECORDING)!! It was an intense workout but really nice to workout outside with my girlfriend. I’m really enjoying this activity because usually during exam time i isolate myself in my room and I usually feel like shit by the end of the exam period but this semester  I’m feeling surprisingly good since I have to force myself to work out a few times a week. 

  I started with my 3rd week of workout with my abs workout because i want to stay a little bit more consistent with it. As i mentioned before i have my upper abs but my lower ones aren’t showing yet and because of that i want to hyper focus on them. I have done the same abs workout as i have done once before I did 2 reps of 4 exercises them being straight arm Russian twists, heel taps, opposite tow retouches and bicycles. I did one set of each workout and then the next. Each workout was done until failure and a minuet break was taken in between each workout. Overall the workout took 20 min, and was quit intense even though i had done this workout before. The workout was intense because it hadn’t been done in a while. I had a lot of difficulty by the end of the exercise and was exhausted after even though it was only 25 minuets. 

Starting: 3:40-41 Workout: Finished: 4:30 On Monday, April 11 I decided to do a muscular workout and and hyper focus on my upper body. Frequency: i started my workout the moment I got back home, i plan to do one home exercise (on Monday) and one with my trainer (on Wednesdays). I also plan on doing smaller workouts in between for core strength. I ended up doing 3 sets of 10 reps for each of my workouts. Intensity:i didn’t go too intense today since it was my first day restarting workouts since when I got Covid 3 weeks ago. Even tho that was the case I was still sweating and sore afterwords. It can be seen that for my first set I had incorporated more chest workouts like flies but I want able to do it for the rest since it was too much for my body.  Time: I worked out from 3:40 to 4:30 so intern doing a 50 minute workout. Type: as I mentioned above I only focused on upper body during my workout, i started off with bench press, then flies(only for set 1), I then did isolated double h...
