Up until this point, I feel like I’ve given you a pretty good understanding of what takes place during the typical HIT workout. For the remaining workouts I’m just going to be listing the exercises and the total workout time it takes me to complete them.
Today’s workout began with the chest press, I finished 6 reps. Then I moved on to the lateral pull-down machine and completed 7 reps. I went to the shoulder press machine and completed 6 reps before moving on to the bicep curls. I did 6 reps and then froze around the half-way point. Even though I tried to keep breathing to complete the 7th rep, I couldn’t do it.
I walked over to the leg curl machine and completed 6 reps. It was really more like 5 and ¾ths, but I figured since I crossed the half-way point I would just round it up to 6 total reps.
Last on the list came the leg presses. I pushed out 7 reps and collapsed. I just sat in the machine for 2 minutes panting and trying to catch my breath.
Today’s workout took 8 minutes and 49 seconds. I am really pleased with the strength gains and feel this workout is an ideal way to stay in shape. I am curious to see what I’ll look like when it’s over.
