Another training week has been completed as of 2:00 pm today, so it’s that time of the week again! Time to share my week of workouts with you! 
This week has been great and I’m still experiencing that “workout high” from today’s leg workout.
I hope you enjoy reading over this week’s workouts and maybe even give some a try for yourself!

We went really heavy on chest today! I loved it! I was sore by the end of the night and the DOMS lasted for days! Hitting those low reps with heavy weights always gets me!

Today’s workout was awesome and we did two new to me exercises! It’s awesome that I’ve been training with my trainer since September and he’s still able to give me new ways to shock my muscles! I absolutely loved the preacher curls using an EZ bar. I was able to really concentrate on flexing my bicep. If you’ve never given them a try, try them out this week!
Saturday - Legs
Leg extensions 4 x 12 (PR for reps), 10 (PR for weight and reps), 8 (PR for weight and reps), 10
Hack squats 4 x 12, 10, 6, 6
One leg leg press 3 x 12 (PR for reps), 10 (PR for reps), 10
Stiff leg deadlift 3 x 12, 10, 10
Standing hamstring curl 3 x 10, 8, 8
Donkey calf raises 3 x 10
Seated calf raises 3 x 10
Today’s workout was great and full of PR’s! I didn’t realize, but my trainer increased my leg extension weight by 15 lbs. for our second set. I guess I wasn’t trying my hardest in the past because I was able to get up to 10 reps, so we went up another 15 lbs. from there! My one leg leg presses are also improving which excites me because I was stuck at the same weight for a while. I had so much power for my workout today! It must have been all of that prime rib I had last night 
Sunday - Rest
I hope you all had a great week of training, too!
What was your favourite workout this week? Did you workout today? What did you do? I want to hear it all!
Happy Saturday and have a great weekend, loves!

Great week! Congrats on the PRs!!!
I always do my preacher curls using an EZ bar – so much easier on the wrists.
I agree! That’s exactly what I told Art
Great workouts, girl! I went to my weekly yoga class this morning . . . it was heavenly.
My body is aching for a rest day though, so that’s the plan for tomorrow. Rest. 
Happy Saturday!!
Today was my rest day, too
I hope you enjoyed as much as I did!
Wow woman! You certainly had a great week! Congratulations on all the PRs! I had some pretty good workouts with my trainer this week and she told me that I’m lifting more weight than some of her male clients right now (go me!).
I almost skipped my workout today. I was feeling really tired even though I have “one hr cardio” on the schedule for today. So, to meet me halfway (and to avoid going out in the bitter cold) I popped in a yoga DVD and did a 40 min session. I was really proud because I haven’t done yoga in forever and I feel like I got a small workout in instead of skipping it all-together.
Good for you girl! Thanks for sharing
I love being updated on my girl <3
Your week looks like it was a busy one! My favorite workout was a CrossFit WOD we did on Thursday. It was 15 minutes to complete as many rounds as possible of: 10 box jumps (20 in), 10 kettle bell swings (55 lb) and 10 hand release push-ups. It was a good one!
That sounds intense girl!
i had a very low key week of workouts… since i had morning conferences, i had to be quick and did mostly quick cardio sessions. yesterday i took a day off and today i’m meeting my siblings at the gym (gotta love family workouts!)
You and your fam!
Like I say, I gotta meet ‘em soon!
Leg day was my favorite for this week (as always), I get the best and most challenging workout from those! Your PR’s are amazing!
p.s. I love that you share your workouts, I think it helps others get a great idea on what a good workout “split” can be. Thanks girl!
Awwww so happy you enjoy
I just got back from gymnastics, which is my favorite workout of the week!
FUN!
Thanks for posting. I may have to copy your shoulders/biceps/core workout one of these days. Looks like a winner!
Let me know if you do
It was seriously my fav biceps workout ever!
Three rest days sounds really good right now, Meg, congrats on giving your body a chance to heal and avoid overuse injuries. I need more rest days, I will have to take a break after my skating competition next Saturday. Meanwhile, and not surprisingly, my workouts were six days of figure skating this week, plus lots of stretching every day, massage, icing, and heat.
I always have at least two days of complete rest
It’s amaaaazing!
Good girl! Proud of you for listening to your body and resting when you needed it. I listened to mine on Saturday and got TWO things for lunch at a burger joint because I was starving from so much training.
