tuesday trainer – my go-to time saver

You might be a gangster if:

You refer to yourself as a gangster.

You lick sunflower seed butter off the kitchen floor.  Worth it.

Your computer looks like this:

Travis saved the computer!!  Well most of it.  The keyboard no longer works, so what you see above is an innovative combination of laptop and desktop keyboard.  We’re straight up professional over here.

My pictures are still there – that’s all I care about!  I don’t care how he did it, but Travis’ intelligence pays off yet again.  Thanks, babe!  All that geeking out you did yesterday really paid off!

Moving on….

Ok…are you guys ready for a sweet and sweaty workout?!?!  How about one that will hit ALL of your muscles, burn tons of calories and save you time.  Time that you can spend online shopping for a new non-ghetto laptop!

The theme for this week’s Tuesday Trainer was “My Go-To Time Saver”!!  Compound moves that target multiple body parts and burn tons of calories! 

Gone are the days of isolating and targeting single muscles.  We just don’t have time.  If you’re like me, you want to get IN, tear some muscle fibers, break a sweat and GO HOME! 

{Home to bake Garbanzo Bean Brownies.  Then throw them away because garbanzo beans belong on salads and in hummus, not brownies.  Sugar and white flour belong in brownies.  That recipe will NOT be making the blog!}

Forget Build-A-Bear.  Here’s Build-A-Superset!

The Workout – “Super Set ME!”

Build 3 supersets by pairing a Column A exercise with a Column B exercise.  Supersets should be performed in 3 sets, 12 repetitions each.  Rest for 60 seconds before beginning the next set.  After completing one superset, rest for 90 seconds.  (Active rest may be taken if fitness level allows.)  Be sure to choose weights that are challenging enough to perform each exercise WITH CORRECT FORM.
