My New Workout Plan

I changed to a new workout plan that is a more

simplified and fast upper body workout

using three compound movements, using

three exercise machines resulting in a very

quick but very effective workout.

Given my back problem, this workout helps

me stay fit, build muscle and stay lean.

For each of these three compound movements

I perform 6 sets, almost like performing one

very long drop set.

I start with two sets of a weight I can do 8 to 10

reps max, then drop the weight down to a

weight where I can continue to do 8 to 10

reps per set for another 2 sets and follow-up

with a 3rd 2 sets with less weight with 8 to 10

reps.

Compound exercises

are generally

preferred and

recommended by

most, if not all athletic

trainers!

With utilizing compound exercises in your

workout routine you will be using more

muscle groups, thus getting a better overall

strength workout!

Compound Exercises:

1.simulate real-world exercises .

2.allows for a

full body workout faster.

3.mean more calories burned.

Compound Exercises:

4.improve joint stability.

5.decrease the risk of sports injury.

6.improve coordination and balance.

Compound Exercises:

9. build more strength.

7. provide cardiovascular benefits.

8. exercise longer with less muscle fatigue.

My New Workout Plan is very simple!!

The three compound movements are:

Lat Pull Down – works the lats, back and

biceps. Here I use the HOIST Lat Pull Down

Machine as it really emphasizes the lats

much more efficiently than using other

machines or pulley systems I have tried in the

past.

Seated Bench Press – works the chest and

triceps. Using a seated bench press

machine is much, much safer for my back

as opposed to the horizontal bench press

table using free weights.

It is very important that I use a machine that

enables a comfortable seating position

while performing the exercise, as in the past

certain seated bench press machines really

negatively impacted my lower back.

Side Lateral Raises – works the shoulders and

neck. Here I prefer to use dumbbells as I feel

the shoulder area is better worked than using

a machine.

I also prefer to do more reps with less weight

with this exercise due to the ability to injure

my shoulder joints with too much weight

coupled with the possibility of compressing

my spine to where I start to feel the sciatica

down my right leg after the exercise.

Here I use 15 lbs, then

drop down to 10 lbs,

then to 7.5 pounds.

This entire workout takes me only 25 minutes,

then I am out of the gym. Very easy, fast and

produces results. I do this workout twice a

week and have had no issues with my

herniated disc and feel great!!
