• Weights - Circuit - 600 movements - 25 bench presses but on an exercise ball for added core benefit with two 20lb free weights, 25 sit ups, 25 tricep extensions with a 20lb free weight, 25 hip abductions at 140lb, 25 hip adductions at 100lb. Repeat 3 more times. 10 lateral raises with two 8lb free weights, 10 crunches on the abdominal machine at 70lb. Repeat 4 more times.

So for today, I actually upped my tricep extension weight. It was more difficult! Especially to keep good form while at that weight... But I did it. Also, at the end I upped the abdominal machine to 70lb, (usually I only do 50lb) but I was only doing 10 at a time, and only doing 50 total. So it was quite difficult, but good considering the amount I was going to do. 

It is hard to make yourself up the weight, but it certainly makes you feel like you accomplished something when you are done!
