Hurricane Workout

[Mark1T]

As a result of Hurricane Ike, my gym has been closed, but will open tomorrow. So, I had to do something to at least stimulate the same muscles.

Monday I did Chest and Triceps which consisted of strict form Pushups: 4 sets of 15 reps each. Then, elevated my feet to work my upper chest and did 4 sets of 15 reps of Pushups.

For Triceps I did 4 sets of close-grip Pushups (Diamond Pushups).

Tuesday I did 4 sets 8 reps each of close-grip Chins on a pullup bar. For Biceps, did 4 sets of strict BB Curls.

Actually it sounds like fun. For your tris you can also do bench dips with your arms behind you. It's great that you just kept on trucking and found a way to workout.

Hope you weren't effected by Mother Nature.

Thanks. Had 70+ mph winds here. 100% of golf courses will be out of commission for months, within several hundered miles. One golf course around here for example had over 750 trees down. Grocery stores are virtually barren, but you can find food. Gas is hard to find without a long line.

my gym reopened tue with limited hours 8a-5p cause of curfew. i got in for 25 to 45 mins a day. im hoping fri hours will back to normal.

the weights and bars are all rusty. i guess they were all cold from the ac and then the sultry no ac set in and the sweating started. sucks cause the gym is brand new.

Thanks, guys. Just got back from a great Shoulder workout. Gym opened late, but better late than never.

Everything's going to be ok

Hy hurricane workout has been a lot of 2-story ladder climbing, plywood presses (putting it up on windows, taking it down), roof climbing, patio furniture carrying, pushing small trees back upright, pushing fence back upright, etc. My gym is still closed. Today I have more ladder climbing to caulk the holes from putting the wood up and some yardio.
