New Workout

I love staying active and as an adult I know how hard it can be to find other outlets besides the gym to keep you going.  Currently I am in my fifth month at the Degerberg Academy of Mixed Martial arts and I really enjoy it.  Three hours a week I get to feel like I am back in high school again competing with people that have similar interest.  Besides just being fun as hell I burn close to 1000 calories a class and feel more then confident to jump into the octagon.  It is also the inspiration for my work-out today.

With this you will do three sets of 12-15 reps and take a 90 second break in-between.

Hanging Cleans
Decline Bench Weight Twist (2 sets of 20)
Dead Lift 
Alternating Dumbbell Flys 
L-Pull Ups
Mountain Climbers ( 2 sets of 20)
Dips with Knee Up
Plyometric Pushups.

For a little added fun do two minute rounds with a jump rope between exercises.

New Workout

This is a circuit that will hit all the major muscle groups and not take more then thirty minutes to complete.

Bar Squats: 2 sets of 12-15 reps
Lunges: 2x 12-15
Dumbbell Flys: 2x 12-15
Bent Over Barbell Row: 2x 12-15
Shoulder Press: 2x 12-15
Alternating Dumbbell Curls: 2x 12-15
Rope Tricep Extension: 2x 12-15
Med Ball V-Sit Twist: 1x 20
Bicycle: 1x 20

There are a couple ways to do this circuit.  Either do both sets for each exercise before moving on to the next or do one exercise after the other.  You can also vary the intensity by taking short breaks between sets and exercises making things a little tougher with small breaks.  Have fun.
