House Arrest

Sicilian truck/transportation drivers have been on strike since Monday. Because of this, no gasoline, food, mail, and many other goods can come onto the island. As of early Wednesday morning, all gas stations ran out of fuel. Right now, there is no end to the strike in sight so my husband and I have decided I will not drive the vehicle until gasoline returns to the island. This means... NO GYM. I was crushed this morning, but didn't let it stop me from getting in a decent workout. I hit my chest, shoulders, triceps and abs with only a stability ball and 15lb kettlebell. Yep, that's all. I decided to take a little video for you all so you can see that not having a gym membership is no excuse. This video is only a little excerpt.
The full workout was as follows; Circuit Set 1: Stability Ball Seated Shoulder Press (10 reps), Stability Ball Incline Chest Press (10), Stability Ball Chest Press (10), Kettlebell Windmills (10), Kettlbell Push Ups (10). Perform all exercise with left are first, then with right arm. That's one set. Perform set 4 times through. Circuit Set 2: Elevated Push Ups on Stability Ball (10), Single Arm Shoulder Lateral Raise (10 each arm), Overhead One Arm Tricep Extension (10 each arm), Stability Ball Crunch (20). Complete giant set 3 times through. Last and Final Circuit Set: Stability Ball Seated double arm front kettlebell raise (15), Standing Overhead double arm tricep extension balanced on one leg (20), Bicycle Crunch (20 total), Side Plank (30 seconds each side). Do this last set 3 times through.
