    Wall sit is next usually around 2 minutes gonna up it to 2:30 soon

    next is push ups on the half swedish ball again but this time your partner is holding your feet and its the same 30 as before.

    squats are next do 10 hold down for 10, do 10 more hold it down for 20, do 10 more hold it down for 30

    dips are next 2 sets of 30 using a bench for your arms and your partner holds your feet...do 10 with partner holding both feet hold it for 10...partner only holds 1 foot now do 10 hold for 10 then switch to the other foot

    pyramid curls 2 sets are next one person holds inside and does the odds person on the outside does the evens up to 10 switch positions then go down to 0

    What are your goals? That program looks like a fine lose weight program but if your tryin to get big you need to stop doing abs and running every night, do an extra day of abs and running and cut it out of the nights you do other things, your abs are a stabalizer and if youre doing abs everynight you will overtrain them and your other workouts could start to seem harder as for the cardio its really hard to get big while doing alot of cardio id say limit it to one night.
