Yesterday we did a home workout, today I want to share a very basic gym workout – should you find that you fancy it!

Warm up – 5 minutes on any full body cardio machine plus the following dynamic stretches:

1. Hamstring swings
2. Arm circles
3. Arm across the chest
4. Torso twists
5. Shoulder shrugs

Main Workout – these are machine exercises – complete each exercise for 12-15 reps for 2-3 sets resting 30-60 seconds between.

1. Leg press
2. Leg curl
3. Leg extension
4. Chest press
5. Seated row
6. Shoulder press

Once you’ve hit these COMPOUND (multi-joint) movements you can cool down OR if you have time try some of the following:

1. Calf raise
2. Bicep curl
3. Tricep push down
4. Ab curl
5. Dorsal raise

Cool down – 5 minutes gentle walk on treadmill followed by stretches as per home workout.
