My New 10 Minute Strength Train

It may not last for the ideal amount of time, but my new 10-minute Strength Train(ish) workout is an improvement on my recent exercising.

It consists of these steps, in whatever order I feel like at the time. (I have to keep it going and not get too tired before it's over. I always have to break one area before working it, again.)

• Thigh master (thighs) (50 reps)
  
• Arm flub (back of arm) lifts w/ weights (about 25)
  
• Modified push-ups (20-30)
• Hand-and-feet*-weighted jacknifes (10-30)
  
• Side-to-side crunches (15-30)
  
• Hand-weighted sit-ups (10-25)
• (Always last, it knocks me out) Jumping jacks (40-50)

Sometimes I add in other thigh master things. My weights are 2 lbers, I'm sure I could move up to more weight, now. Hmm. (* My feet are weighed by my school tote with books.)

I'm working up to doing it every day, and also doing it up to three times per day. When I'm able to do more work on one muscle group right after the other, I can do more exercises, and for longer.

Yesterday, I shopped at the mall for 5 hours. Yippee. I also bought a wristlet to carry my very important inhaler and cell phone to take on walks, so I really want to go on walks, a lot. This Labor Day weekend is going to be beautiful, but I still have to wait for early evening to have a cooler temperature.

Hopefully, by Sunday, I'll have lost one of the pounds (or 1 1/2) I gained back this week. Next week, I should get below that.
