Hello, fitness enthusiasts! My name is Tyson, and I’m here to share my fitness transformation and inspire you to achieve your goals. Over the past few years, I’ve lost 60 pounds of body fat and have been diligently working on building lean muscle. I’m still on my journey to shed 20 more pounds, and I’ve decided to create this blog to stay accountable—and to encourage you to follow along and embark on your own journey.

Today’s Workout at LA Fitness
Despite the rainy Pacific Northwest weather, I made my way to the gym and crushed an arm workout followed by an hour on the treadmill. The endorphins are flowing, and I feel fantastic! Nutrition has been my guiding light, and I can’t stress enough that knowledge truly is power when it comes to fitness.
My Arm Workout Routine
Here’s a breakdown of today’s arm workout—feel free to try it and let me know how it goes:
- Set #1: Progressive Set – Standing Curl
Start with 15 reps of light weight, immediately move to 12 reps of medium weight, and finish with 8 reps of heavy weight. After a short rest, reverse the order (8, 12, 15 reps). This classic bicep curl will leave your arms pumped. - Set #2: Single Set – Tricep Extension (sitting with dumb bell behind head, pushing upward)
Using one dumbbell, complete 15 reps of light weight, rest, then 12 reps of medium weight, and finish with 8 reps of heavy weight. Add a drop set of 8 reps with lighter weight at the end for a real burn. - Set #3: Force Set – Wide EZ Bar Curl (Can use 2 dumb bells if no EZ curl bar)
Perform 5 sets of 5 reps without putting the bar down. Rest for 5-10 seconds between sets while holding the weight. Focus on controlled movements to maximize results. - Set #4: Single Set – Skull Crusher
Using the EZ Curl Bar, lower the weight to your forehead and extend back up. Start with 15 reps of light weight, rest, then 12 reps of medium weight, and finish with 8 reps of heavy weight. Include a drop set of 8 reps to push your limits. - Set #5: Progressive Set – Hammer Curl
Alternate arms, progressing through 15, 12, and 8 reps before reversing (8, 12, 15 reps). Keep your form tight and engage your biceps. - Set #6: Progressive Set – Tricep Kickback
Alternate arms for 15, 12, and 8 reps, then reverse (8, 12, 15 reps). Tricep kickbacks are great for toning and strengthening your arms. - Set #7: Single Set – Weighted Crunch
Wrap up with 30 seconds of ab burnout. Lie on the bench, hold a light plate behind your head, and complete 30 crunches. Feel the burn!
