peridot in the rough

I love seeing mine. It reminds me why I'm doing this.
 
Yes, I do. my shoulders are starting to grow. am so excited. have been wanting more definition to my shoulders. finally after all these years.

Same workout. shoulders are sore. Yay.

did 2 uppers depending on length of lower one or two lower body workouts followed by another upper. in between this set, did jump squats followed by jumping jacks, the aerobic part lasted about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.

love these workouts. my workouts are so much shorter and I am getting more out of it than when I did videos or any other type of training. I love it because I am targeting the areas I need to train and not overdoing the areas that I don't want to, triceps, they get enough of a workout from the pushups and back work. I especially love the alternative channel to workout out to. the music is great. Once I figure out what weight works for my legs will not be doing 2 sets for the one-legged press.

shoulders ~ 3s for lat raises, bent lat raises, upright rows; 5s for military press.
legs ~ 10s for one legged press; 7s for the second set.
calves ~ 10 for the first set; 8s for the second. will do 12s next time.
chest ~ pushups, 12s, for press; 10s for flyes; only pushups next workout. my arms seem to tire out and don't get a great burn in my chest area like with pushups.
back ~ 4s for swing for 2 sets; 5s for third set; 6s for last set. definitely will try 7s next workout.
hips ~ side abductions used 4s. great burn. did two sets.
biceps ~ 6s for standing curls
