Got back to working out this morning after letting my bum shoulder take a rest yesterday.
Went hard again today, feels good, still sticking with my modified version of this
circuit but am regularly doing "max-out" sets for both circuits. I have also added 24 bicycle crunches per circuit as well. I think I might start doing three circuits in the morning with no max-out reps and see how it works. I'm really starting to like the results I'm seeing.
Ate a more well-rounded breakfast this morning, was going to add in a Kiwi but forgot. Going to be a long day today, have to take my lunch break at 1:00. At least it will make the last part of the day go by faster.
I listed my modified circuit below, takes about 30 - 35 minutes depending on your pace.
Cheers!
