Taking a look back at 3 years ago….

Here is a link to some of the zoom workouts we did during the shut down of 2020. It’s hard to believe that was 3 years ago! All of the workouts on these videos are either bodyweight or with household objects you’ll have around the house. And I have to admit, they are pretty tough! Please excuse the beginning of each video as we sign on and get situated. Also, you can skip to the next workout through the playlist as needed.

Enjoy!

3 At Home Workouts to Keep You Moving!

While the cats away, the mice will play…… Not today! I can’t leave you without some kind of challenge or homework to do! First, keep working on your ability to stand up off the ground without using your hands. In addition, try sitting or standing from your dining room or office chair on 1 leg. Attempting a couple of these a day will make these significantly easier in the gym.

EVERYDAY MOVEMENT TO WAKE AND WARM YOU UP:

WORKOUT #1: The Backpack Workout

Fill a backpack with some books or sweatshirts. This will be your weight for the workout.

Complete 3 Rounds:

• 15 Backpack Squats
• 10 X Woodchops per side (squat and swing bag up and across your shoulder)
• 15 Tricept extensions (lifting bag behind then overhead)
• 30 wall sit with bag on thighs
• 30 second Plank with bag strapped to back or front of body
