I went pretty fast
I made some changes to these exercises:
Bicep curls in a row alterneting arms (7-7, 6-6, 5-5, 4-4)
Deadlifts in a row
Shrugs in a row
I could think about raising the weight except for the bent over flys but I give it back in a week or so, better let the body get used to the new weights first
I have to add some stretching to the shoulders, it's the part of the body that is suffering the most


Have a nice day bees


P.S. Anyway ... there is a sensible risk that abdominal muscles will start to appear ... and they are the thing that I am training less, mysteries of fitness

I think it's the Kime ... when I contract my abdominals strongly while squeezing the silicone rings for grip training ...

In my experience, it’s the weight training that does it. But, you’re adding a “reason” for abdominal contraction, so, you may be on to something💪🏼😎

Who knows? But it is a pleasant side effect

Right?! It’s nice to actually SEE abs with all this work, yeah? Makes a nice reward!!🥳🙌🏼

My girlfriend noticed it, it's worth double

Yoga abs Challenge

Boat Pose > Wind Pose, Hollow Hold > Wind Pose, Boat Pose > Wind Pose
I changed a Boat Pose with a Hollow Hold, an interesting variation but I still struggle more with the Boat Pose


Grip Training

I added a little training for the wrists, taken by Aikido, since I'm training "hands and forearms" and the wrists are in the middle is better to take them into consideration


Iron Born Leg Day

I did the lunges without rest alternating only the legs and the calf raises in a row.
I have more trouble keeping weights than doing leg exercises but I sweated so it's objective that I trained
I still don't like the side lunges but they were the last of the program.
My idea of ​​perfect strength training for the legs remains this:


I'll try it later with the weights

I'm officially halfway through the Ironborn program

There are Lotsa varieties and ways to strength train your legs, though! Side lunges are particularly challenging, but nothing gets the inner thighs like side lunges do!!😬😎
Yay, half way through!! Me too on Totals. Then I have to decide on what’s next🥳🥴

I prefer the Cossack squats
I'm thinking about Carbon & Dust, I like the idea of ​​reading a story and participating in a workout
DorothyMH Do you have something that inspires you?

I highly recommend it

Well, I am very pleased, I have another reason, thank you

Fun fact happened yesterday

My partner surprised me on the bed on my stomach that I did the Daily Dares Glute Flex ... I saw her out of the corner of my eye that she was going to jump on me because she thought I was playing
I told her I still needed 20 reps
And then they say that training is not fun

Yoga abs Challenge
Yoga abs Challenge is getting difficult, I feel the 40 second boat pose, I feel them especially in the legs that I keep straight


Ironborn Day 17 Shoulders, chest & triceps

Today it was hard, I almost dangerously reached exhaustion in the last set of each exercise
It was a great idea to do an extra warm up first and then do a nice session of stretching for the shoulders then
For today I gave and I even reached my 200 daily dares with extra credit


Have a nice day bees

No wonder. You workout a lot. But I guess it's a matter of getting used to it and then there's always off days.
Congratulations on 200 DD+EC

Yep, congrats on these 200 DD+EC, very impressive
