January is a glorious month for most people, they're reinvigorated and determined to succeed at the goals they've laid out, especially when it comes to getting fitter. Its been the opposite for me, work has been so crazy and im only making it to the gym 1-2 times a week. The problem is I eat like a horse, so when im not training normally all those extra calories go straight to my thighs...
My wife and I made it to the gym last night around 8pm, which is super late for us, but we needed to workout. Our gym is super close to our place, but that also makes it super easy to quit early and only do half your workout. But not this night! We both did squats, bench press and some accessories. IT SUCKED! Sitting is hard, so is standing...
Kirsten is starting 5x5 and im doing a complicated program that has words in it that nobody uses. Either way we both did the same movements.
Kirstens Workout:
Warmup
5x5 Squats 95lbs

So every week she increases the weights 5-10lbs on all exercises, she throws in cardio whenever she wants...and hates every second of it.
My workout:
Warmup
4x9 Squats 220lbs

4x9 Bench Press 150lbs
Auxiliary Exercises
I randomly run for cardio, or use an Airdyne for 15 mins
Thats it, we made it, Kirsten is going to train 3 times a week and im trying to do 4.
YAY
