Notes: Day 55! Only five more days left with the FitnessBuilder! Second day of working out with the dumbbells, I never knew the amount of exercises that could be done with dumbbells. It’s a long way from the poster exercises that come with most weight sets.

Dumbbells, Level 3: Comprehensive, Workout 8
Front Squat / Pullover / Arnold Press / Bent Over Row / Uni Stiff Leg Deadlift / Renegade Rear Delt Row / Uni Extension / Reverse Curl / Russian Twist / Negative Crunch

Today’s exercise is purely focused on my arms, did the exercise live up to the name Hardcore Arm Workout. I say, YES.

Hardcore Arms, Workout
Curl / Cable Pushdown / French Press  / Reciprocal Twisting Curl / Concentration Curl / Kickback | Dumbbells / Bench Dip

Notes: If you are bored with your workout, circuit training is the cure. With the constant movement from one exercise to another, you will be more
focused on breathing and executing the exercise to become bored.  It is a great way to reignite your routine.

FitnessBuilder week 6.

Notes: Last day of the FB 5×5 workout. I totally feel stronger. Amazed that I can bench 210lbs, that is double the amount of weight I was using with the Powerblocks. I will keep building on the amount of weight I can bench. My goal is to bench 300lbs within 6 months, stay tuned for that.

Workout Time: 57 min 24 sec

Split Squat / Decline Bench Press / Bent Over Row / Shrug / French Press

Exercise of the Day: French Press (with easy bar) tricep work out. Be careful when doing this exercise too much weight and you will crush your head. One of the reasons I am sure why this exercise has the nick name of skull crusher.

Summary of FitnessBuilder 5×5: Great way to get your body used to lifting heavier with enough rest in between reps to get the maximum lift with each exercise. I am seeing results and feeling them too.
