WEEK OF OCTOBER 20, 2025 - THE POWER OF 4 - ROUND 7 - WEEK 3

MONDAY - October 20, 2025 - THE POWER OF 4 - Chest and Back Round 

My rotation on Chest was: Standard Pushups (32 reps), Pushups on Medicine Balls (24 reps), Chest Presses (30 lb dumbbells, 12 reps): Back was: Band Pulldowns (16 reps), Weighted Seated Rows (12 reps with 30 lb dumbbells), Pullups (with pullup assist, 8 reps). All went OK. I'm liking the Chest Presses instead of the decline pushups on an upside down Bosu Ball that I used to do. It's just a nice change to do something a bit different.

TUESDAY - October 21, 2025 - THE POWER OF 4 - Plyo 30/15

Cardio/Plyo routines are tough for me because of my balance, lack of range of motion, and my inability to move quickly, but I tried a little harder today and it felt a bit better mentally. 

Start Time: 7:45 pm; Workout Time: 42 minutes; Calories Burned: 227; Avg Heart Rate: 99 .

WEDNESDAY - October 22, 2025 - THE POWER OF 4 - Arms and Abs

I did OK. I pretty much used the same weights I had in the past. I used 30's on the Bicep Curls, which I do instead of the bent over Heavy Curls. I don't like putting myself in that position. 

Start Time: 6:15 pm; Workout Time: 42 minutes; Calories Burned: 281; Avg Heart Rate: 113. 

THURSDAY - October 23, 2025 - THE POWER OF 4 - Power and Strength Yoga

Ugh! One vinyasa after another as is the usual with Tony's Yoga workouts. Somedays I can force my way through. Today wasn't one of those days as I sat through a few moves in the "ladder" section, just to keep my mental synapses in check. I still fail to see the relaxation in that many vinyasas.
