Chest/Triceps Work Out

Below is the chest/triceps work out I did the first month.  As the month progressed my weights increased but the repetitions (“reps” – the number of times you do the exercise) stayed pretty consistent.

FYI – Most of these exercises are meant for a gym work out vs. one that you can do at home with simple weights.

As you can see, the weights are REALLY light because I’m not that strong…yet.

Chest Press Machine, 3 sets, 15 reps, level 2

Freemotion Chest Fly, 3 sets, 15 reps, 10 lbs. each rep.

DB (dumbbell) Incline Press, 3 sets, 15 reps, 10 lbs. each rep.

Push ups to fail, 3 times

Triceps Press Down, 3 sets, 10-15 reps, 30-40 lbs. each rep.  (FYI – I usually started with 10 reps and 40 lbs. and by the third set I was tired and was only able to do 10 reps at 30 lbs.)

Skull Crushers, 3 sets, 10-15 reps, 5 lbs. first set, 7.5 lbs. the next two sets

Enjoy!
