Wednesday, August 31st Workout - Chest & Abs Day Plus Cardio

Wow! I am exhausted. I spent a little over 2 hours in the gym working on my chest with some abs and cardio thrown on. I think it may go a little bit faster once I'm used to the work out but I fully plan on about 2 hours at the gym six days a week.

I went with pyramiding the work out: basically upping weights and lowering reps as I did each exercise and I think it went really well. It was hard and it was exhausting but it was totally worth the work! Tomorrow I'm looking at Back day and Cardio, hopefully in the morning after we buy groceries!
