Get back in the gym with me💪🏼

I used to workout every day. This past year I dropped off the face of the earth when it came to working out. I still live a very active lifestyle. I rock climb several times a week, I backpack, even my work is physically demanding, but today I decided it was time to get back in the gym. So this was my routine after a 2 hour rock climbing sesh and I KNOW I’m going to feel it tomorrow! Any workouts you want to recommend that would fit in this set or any changes you think I should make? Always open to suggestions! 🏋🏻‍♀️

- Lat pull downs wide grip

- Single arm lat pull down

- Seated close grip row

- Bench press

- chest press

- Rear Deltoid Fly

- Chest Flys

- Pull-ups / Chin up to fail

I usually do 4 sets of 12 but since I haven’t worked out in a year I started with 4 sets of 8!

... Read moreGetting back into a gym routine can be challenging, but it's essential for maintaining physical health and fitness. Start with a mix of strength training and resistance exercises to ease into your regimen. Focus on compound movements like bench presses and pull-ups, which work multiple muscle groups simultaneously. Incorporating rock climbing, as you do, helps with strength and endurance, making it a fantastic complement to your gym workouts. Don't forget to listen to your body; it's okay to modify your sets and repetitions as needed. If you're feeling the burn, ensure you take adequate rest days to allow for muscle recovery. Regarding workout motivation, consider documenting your progress either through a fitness journal or sharing updates on social media platforms, where you can connect with like-minded fitness enthusiasts. And remember, consistency is key—set realistic goals and gradually increase the intensity of your workouts as you get stronger. Explore popular fitness hashtags like #workoutmotivation and #gyminspo for additional encouragement and community support. Searching for more workout inspiration? Try using platforms like Lemon8 to discover creative fitness tips from fellow users. There’s a wealth of content around gyms, outdoor workouts, and effective routines that fit different lifestyles. Personal stories and shared experiences can spark new ideas for your own fitness journey as you reconnect with the gym environment.
