it depends what i do. I do 15 per arm for arms usually (but I wanna go down to 5 for a while and more reps), but overhead tricep stuff I do like 25/30, sometimes 20. uhm tricep dips i use a bench and do 20 with my own weight. for arms i do lateral raises, bicep curls, “anterior” raises, and shit i dont know what they’re called so I will describe them. wait lemme start over

Arms/ Upper body: 10-12 reps, 2-3 sets, 10-15 lb weights

  • bicep curls
  • lateral raises
  • front raises
  • bicep curl, turn out, and go up to head so ends of weight touches and turn back in, then finish with the bicep curl (thats 1)
  • plank rows
  • bear hug machine 10 on each side
  • bent over row things
  • medicine ball pushups
  • reverse fly 15 lbs
  • shoulder press 15 lbs
Lower body
  • at least 50 squats with 40 pound weights; 10 reps, 5 sets. and on the 10th one per each set, hold or pulse for 10 seconds
  • walking lunges with bicep curls (10 lb weight) I would say about 30 secs
  • lateral lunges (sometimes) (10 lb)
  • jumping/ alternating lunges no weights (30 seconds)
  • 5 lb ankle weights per each - 1 cycle - fire hydrants, rainbow, the donkey kick things, leg out and pulse, etc. sometimes ill split it up into two different things and ill do 2-3 sets
  • calf raises - no weights, about 100
  • deadlifts with 40 lbs
  • jump squats no weights
  • plie jumps no weights
  • drop squat jumps no weights
Abs:
  • 3 sets 20 oblique side crunch standing up hand behind head, weight in other hand. 15 lbs
  • 100 “toe touch” with weighted medicine ball. 20 reps, 5 sets
  • medicine ball in between legs (not weighted) and transfer ball to arms doing a crunch and repeat. 1 is up and back. 5 reps, 5 sets (25 altogether)
  • oblique machine thing - 60 lbs, 15 reps, 3 sets
  • 5 lb ankle weights and spell alphabet (i usually take a brea in between 5 letters) go slow
  • some reg crunches, pretzel crunches, oblique crunches, etc. and there’s a post going round with muffin top melter thing or whatever, i do that too

I can’t think of anything else I do with weights I don’t think.

I don’t really have a consecutive workout plan anymore. I basically run/ jog/ sprint/ walk for 30-45 minutes usually on the treadmill, 3-5 times a week and one day a week (usually) run on the boardwalk. I also do about 50 squats per day and work on abs. I am now starting the Nike Training Club and going to test out how well it works for me :) I just don’t have a legit plan atm.
