WEEK 4 WORKOUTS


MODIFICATIONS:

Jumping Exercises: take the jump out

Plank Position Exercises: do them from your knees vs. feet

Weighted Exercises: use lighter weight or body weight

Time/Rest Ratio: If you need rest/more rest take it! Examples:

  • If the workout indicates 30 sec. work, 0 rest - add in 15 sec. rest after each exercise for example.

  • If 45 sec. of work/15 sec. rest is too long, turn the workout into 40/20 or 30/15.


REMINDER:

WARM UP before your workout / STRETCH after.

WARM UP: Keep it simple, move your body for 5-8 minutes before you dive into your workout. Mix together movements for 30 seconds each like ghost skipping on the spot, dance around the room, jumping jacks, air squats, push ups, planks, sit ups, shoulder + hip rolls. There’s no wrong movement, just get your heart rate up, stretch things that feel tight and play your favorite tunes! STRETCH after your workout for a minimum of 5 minutes. Don’t underestimate the power of cooling your muscles down effectively. What muscles did you work in the workout? Stretch those!
