Greetings, sports enthusiasts! Today is Monday, and it's time for strength training. It's very important to diversify our workouts to mitigate injuries and continue to make consistent progress in our chosen discipline. Before starting my training, I begin with a gentle 15-minute warm-up on the treadmill to prepare my body for strength exercises. There are various types of dynamic warm-ups, and the minimum warm-up time is 15 minutes.
Start your strength training exercises with a weighted lunge routine, using 5 kg dumbbells in each hand. With your back straight and shoulders relaxed, bend your right leg forward to form a 90° angle with your knee and foot. Do 20 repetitions with each leg, resting for 30 seconds between sets. This type of exercise helps improve posture and hip mobility, and adding weight helps maintain body stability. It is an easy strength exercise to do at home, and if you do not have weights, you can use something heavy such as plastic bottles filled with water or sand.
The other strength exercise I did was weighted sumo squats, an exercise that works the lower body, especially the glutes and adductors. I did 4 sets of 20 repetitions each, with a 10-second rest between sets.
Segui ahora con trabajo de brazos, que también son muy importante fortalecer, ya que así de esta forma nos da mayor estabilidad, porque mejoran nuestra postura, ademas que nos mejora mucho la autoestima cuando vemos nuestros brazos tonificados, de este ejercicios realice dos variaciones, con una pesa de 10 kilos, tomada con ambos brazos realice 4 series de 20 repeticiones, con descanso de 15 segundos, luego ambos brazos con pesa de 5 kilogramos, levantando cada brazo bien estirado de forma alterna, realice 4 series de 20 repeticiones 10 por cada brazo, este tipo de ejercicios me cuesta bastante ya que no son muy fuerte las pesas, pero si que los necesito con urgencia.
Now continue with arm exercises, which are also very important to strengthen, as this gives us greater stability by improving our posture. It also greatly improves our self-esteem when we see our toned arms. For this exercise, do two variations with a 10-kilogram weight held with both arms. Do 4 sets of 20 repetitions with a 15-second rest. Then, with both arms holding a 5-kilogram weight, lift each arm alternately with your arm fully extended. Do 4 sets of 20 repetitions, 10 for each arm. This type of exercise is quite difficult for me as the weights are not very heavy, but I really need them.
Para finalizar mi lunes de fortalecimiento, me estires, relaje, y por su puesto me hidrate, quedando bien satisfecha de mi jornada de este dia.
To finish off my Monday strength training session, I stretch, relax, and of course hydrate, feeling very satisfied with my day's work.
