Fitness is really important to me for obvious reasons but also because it just makes me feel better. It gives me more energy, I feel more confident, I'm doing something for myself and I can be alone in my thought for 1.5 hours.
I am currently on my second month of consistently working out. The first month I started with three days a week. This month I upped it to four. And I switch up from core and leg/butt days to core/back/arm days. I also do 12 minutes of cardio before my workout and 12 minutes of cardio when I'm finished.
Since today was an arm day I wanted to share with you a typical workout for me and some pictures to help you out.
12 Minutes Cardio: 1 minute warm-up, 11 minute jog

And that my friends is one of my arm workouts that I do. But always make sure to switch up your exercises to keep your body guessing. The reason you plateau is due to doing the same things repeatedly. Switch up your cardio workouts and also your strength training.
