Work Day Gym Session 08/07/2008

Work Day Gym Session 08/07/2008

Just another day at work, nothing special. One new Vacation Trainee (VT) joined us early this week. I am currently training both the new staff and this new VT. Both of them are really young, I wish I was that young too.

First to get rid of this as per usual, stats for the walks to/from office:

Monday, 30/06/2008 Medium cardio session
15 mins walked from carpark to office and vice versa with 4kg worth of stuff (with gym equipment)
* Resulted in 130 calories burned (estimated)

With the new improvement to my gym session today, I was able to finish 8 weight exercises while still doing 60 mins of cardiovascular exercises. arrived in the gym at 6:30 pm and got off about 8:40 pm. Total time spent in gym = 2 hours and 10 mins.

My workout routine for the day is as follows:

5 mins on the rowing machine @ effort level = 10
* Resulted in 40 calories burned


Standing military press + Dumbbells shoulder fliers (Super-set):
2x10 @ 32.5kg (military press)

2 (2x10) @ 13.63kg per arm, total = 27.27kg

30 mins on stepper @ effort level = 9
1 min on stepper @ effort level = 5
* Resulted in 155 floors climbed and 340 calories burned

5 mins on crosstrainer @ effort level = 9
20 mins on crosstrainer @ effort level = 8
2 mins on crosstrainer @ effort level = 6
* Resulted in 1.2 km walked and 255 calories burned

Total calories burned for the day = 635 calories

Not too shabby, I am totally spent for the day. Hopefully I will be able to hit the gym again either on Thursday or Friday. I reckon that there won't be much DOMS that I would be suffering from but I will just feel slightly more fatigue than my usual workout.

Hopefully this new routine can melt my body fat away far more effectively. Thanks for reading.
