Lets start with this conversation I had with my workout partner VIT S:

T: I need an extra day to do legs!

V: No you don't, it's what you put in your mouth that matters. It's not weights that give you definition, it's the food intake. 

There you go. The importance of "FUNCTIONAL EATING". 

You can lift weight all you want, but if it is hiding underneath the fat, you'll never see it. 

Anyways, today we did bench press/lateral press (switch off 20 reps x3), then bosu pushups/overhead tricep pulls, and tricep pulldowns (20 reps x3 each).

For women that's out there who are afraid to lift heavy, don't worry we don't have the testosterone like men, you will never get huge. Remember that your little munchkins or even your hand bags weigh more than 5lbs you are lifting at the gym (munchkin=15-30lbs, purse=5-10lbs), you can lift heavier than that with dumbbells!

Then proceeded in kick ass battling rope exercises:

1: Alt wave (1min) --> Figure 8 (1min) --> 20 burpee pushups -->1 min rest

2. Side to side (1min) --> in circles (1min) --> 20 burpee pushups --> 1min rest

3. Alt wave with side shuffle (1min) --> out circles (1min) --> 20 burpee pushups --> 1min rest

4. Alt wave while walking forward/backward (1min) --> Figure 8 walking forward/backward (1min) --> 20 burpee pushups --> 1min rest

5. Circle right (1min) -->circle left (1min) --> 20 burpee pushups --> 1min rest

Total time: 20 min (equals out of breath every set and heart rate up the roof)
