Hi Love!

It's Push Day! You ready?

Your push muscles are your chest, shoulders, and triceps. You can think of your push muscles as being the muscles you use when you’re pushing the weights away from your body.

Recently, I’ve been loving the challenge of a great push day workout! We are sticking to some good old fashioned basics in this gym workout, using both dumbbells and machines.

Exercise Terms to Know

Super set: Perform 2 exercises one after the other without rest in between. Rest for 60 seconds after performing 1 set of each movement. Repeat for number of sets.

Drop set: Perform the prescribed number of repetitions of an exercise. Then drop to a weight that is lower than what you were using and continue performing the exercise until you can no longer perform repetitions with good form. Then stop.
