Today I kept the same circuit as the first time and I tried to increase reps in most of the exercises.
It was like this:
- JOGGING - 17 minutes with switching from a jogging speed to top speed several times and for a certain distance you choose.
- JUMPING JACKS - 30 reps
- PUSH-UPS - 20 reps
- CRUNCHES - 40 reps
- SQUATS - 25 reps
- JACK KNIVES - 15 reps
- LUNGES - 15 reps each leg
After I finished I had a rest of 2 minutes and though I would be able to repeat the circuit one more time, but I was dead man!!
The next session, the challenge would be to perform this circuit 2 times.
I would love you guys to give it a try and tell me how you did.
Feel free to comment and stay tuned.
The best part we guys love in our bodies are abs, after pecs maybe. And we know that the key to get and keep that six pack is to change our eating habits, which is actually not easy at all.
Water-based fruits and vegetables are perfect to maintain a stomach with fairly little fat, grapes, watermelon, cherries, lettuce ... and Cucumbers of course.
But after what I read about Spanish cucumbers, no way I'm going to eat them again until I hear some relieving news.
They contain a virus that has killed people. This is freaking out.
What do you think about this story? Do you still eat cucumbers?
Hi guys!
As I promised, today I did my first session of training at 6:00 PM.
The circuit is composed of upper body and lower body exercises in order to tone the whole body.
Here is the complete circuit: ( Keep in mind that you could have a max of 4 seconds rest between each exercise, and it'd be better if you have no rest at all).
- JOGGING - 15 minutes with switching from a jogging speed to top speed several times and for a certain distance you choose.
- JUMPING JACKS - 20 reps
- PUSH-UPS - 15 reps
- CRUNCHES - 40 reps
- SQUATS - 20 reps
- JACK KNIVES - 10 reps
- LUNGES - 10 reps each leg
Rest for 1 minute and repeat the circuit one more time.
If you try this circuit and you feel either you can't keep up with it or ti is too easy for you, you can modify it so that it goes well with your fitness.
NOTE: Another page will be added to the blog describing all of the exercises I'm going to be performing, in case you are not familiar with the names,(jack knives, lunges...).
This is it and stay tuned for more.

Hello everybody!
I recall I wrote in the last post that I would start my training program in June the 6th, but unfortunately we are having thunderstorms, actually too many thunderstorms where I live, and since I do my training outdoors I couldn't make it.
I could have done my first training session this evening but, honestly, I didn't trust the weather.
I hope tomorrow there would be a better climate and then I can go on with the training.
Hello dear reader!
I've decided that today would be the first day of my training program, I already made the program that is most suitable for me. I will be posting it after the training session is done of course, with all the details such as Time, Number of reps and sets...
If possible, after each session I will try to write a secondary post that talks about a random topic, by random I don't mean whatever comes to my mind =P, It'd be a small post about nutrition for example and other stuff that have to do with our lean body we're trying to get. I guess you got it.
That's it for now. Take care and stay tuned for more.
Hi everyone!
I'm glad you are dedicating some of your time to go through my BLOG.
I came up with the idea to create this blog just because of a simple fact that is: I LOVE blogging.
I tried it several times before, bringing different main topics each time, but it didn't seem to attract many people though.
I don't know if it is due to the content or it is just my Luckk. I just shut the blog down and try a new one.
Anyway, about a year ago I was looking up *how to get an athletic body* and some related terms in Google, I used to read many pages online in order to get the best exercises and routines to get the body I've always wanted to, not that too muscular and bulky body, just a lean body.
Then I discovered some kind of training called Circuit training or Bodyweight Circuit Training.
The basic of this routine is to combine several exercises and actually do them with no rest between each one; and depending on your level of fitness, you can increase or decrease the number of reps, exercices and rests between each combination of exercises(CIRCUIT).
Why I thought This typical training is great to get an athletic body is because I read it burns fat and tones muscles simultaneously. Once I tried a program I've picked randomly from a website, It's beaten the hell out of me, I was sweating like on a sweltering day; I actually couldn't keep up with the circuit.
What I realized is in order to stick to this type of training you have to design and make your very own programs considering what you're capable of, the available time you have and your goal to achieve.
I've tried circuit training before and I had really satisfying results, but due to some circumstances I quit; quitting is the term the most inacceptable in achieving your goals.
In this blog I will be restarting from point Zero. I'm going to make programs to stick to and you'll be up-dated with every single practicing session I make, posting pictures of my pregression each 15 days.
I hope you're going to have fun and let me hear your every comment and critic, suggestion and point of view.
I bet you will like the idea as soon as you see the results and try to make a move and begin to build that body you've always dreamed of.
Cristiano Ronaldo's body for example, look at those obliques maan!!
