The “Better than nothing” Workout

I went to bed SUPER late last night. My body of course is on its own mental clock and woke up early. Unfortunately waking up to a gray sky didn’t pump up my energy levels much, but despite feeling pretty tired I drug myself to the gym. This is the workout that I’d like to say is better than nothing. A maintenance workout, if you will.

Warm up: 10 minutes on the elliptical

Repeat through 3X’s through
12 assisted pullups
alt with
12 reverse lunges with a bicep curl (15 lb db’s)
alt with
12 reverse lunges

Repeat through 3X’s through 
12 squat upright row/overhead presses
alt with
15 push ups

25 more minutes of sprint intervals on the elliptical while watching the food network channel…dangerous…

The whole workout was about 1 hour and 10 minutes, and I felt like it was sufficient for today. I covered all the muscle groups and got some cardio in.
Some days you just have to do what you can and that is “Better than nothing.”
