Clifta’s Chest Workout May 6, 2016- Reno Personal Fitness Trainer

Hi!

20160507_091539 This was my quick chest workout from May 6, 2016. I got a really good pump from this. I didn’t have alot of time (like 15-20 minutes) so I timed my rest times to keep the pace moving and to keep the intensity up. Even though I was training faster… I still lifted more than last time on the Incline Press, which made me happy. I feel like my body is healing and getting more fit and conditioned each workout. 🙂 About 2 weeks ago when I did Incline DB Presses I did 15 lb. DB’s, as my heaviest weight, on the last set and could still feel my left shoulder/collar bone a little bit and stopped there… 15 lbs. was the heaviest I’ve been able to do in a long time. But today I did my last 2 sets with 20 lbs!!! Yay!! It feels like my body is getting stronger and that it’s able to handle more this week. This workout was before I got my hair done. See my workout below and more chest pics…. and a pic of my new purple hair. 🙂 This is was on a Friday… so the hair pic is with a Friday treat! 😉

What’s Coming Up Next?

Hi Everyone…

IMG_0350I’m trying to coordinate my website with my youtube channel and really want them to work together. So I guess you could say that I’m in the process of getting organized! Yay! lol

I’ve shot a lot of footage the last week or so and sometimes it takes a while for me to edit it… so… what I’ll start doing is trying to post what video will be coming up next for my CliftaFit channel. That way you get an idea ahead of time as to what I’ll be posting on my channel. I’ll also be posting ALL of my workouts here too for my journey back… some of my workouts will be in video form on my channel and others will only be listed here… so make sure you check here often so that you catch everything because there will probably be some workouts that I won’t be able to film, but ALL my workouts will be here. Did that make sense? lol

So check here often to see what’s coming up! 🙂

Clifta’s Fitness Workout- Day 1- Legs on April 20, 2016

Hi Everyone,

DAY 1- LEGS— DONE—- Check 🙂

This was my first leg workout on “My Journey Back”. I actually thought I might be a little sore today, the day after, but I don’t notice any soreness… yay!

Anyways… I had a really short workout before one of my clients, which, even though it was quick, it actually made my legs a little shaky. I’m kind of surprised that I’m not sore, but glad that I’m not. Means I can do a little more next time. I just didn’t want to push it too much the first day back. No muscle soreness and even more important… my knee and hip feel really good. 🙂

*Here’s the workout… 3 Rounds of the circuit below (Non-stop until done)

Walking Lunges …………… 5 lbs. x 10 reps

Bench Step Ups ……………. 5 lbs. x 10 reps

Stiff Leg Deadlifts …………. 45 lbs. x 12 reps

Single Calf Raise …………… Bodyweight x 15 reps each side

*After the above I did…

3 sets of Hip Abductors…. 40 lbs. x 20 reps

Hope you all have a great day!!

Clifta 🙂
