Muscles Back to Back

You've had a nice relaxing weekend and now you're ready for a great workout to start your week off right. We'll start this week off with strength training instead of cardio to mix things up from last week. Today's strength training will be a little different because we're going to work the same muscle 2x in a row with different exercises. This will make it a lot harder.

Again, you know your strengths and weaknesses. If there is a body part that is injured, then choose another exercise.

Do each segment (1-4) a total of 2 times.

1. Pushups
2. Chest Press with weights or resistance bands
