Hi there! I hope you all enjoyed last week’s “Wednesday Workout” post, which focused on burpees! I heart burpees. A lot.
Anyway! I wanted to give you an actual workout to try this week. I taught this in my SHRED class and really enjoyed it. The workout itself actually came from Fitnessista, but I added my own touches with the cardio blasts and changing up the reps a bit.
Everything should be pretty much self-explanatory, but if you have questions, obviously leave me a comment or shoot me an email. For the step-ups, I had my members stack 6 risers under each side of the bench and hold a weight while they stepped up. This is KILLER for the quads and glutes; I’m totally obsessed with step-ups now. I gave the class the option to do whatever burpee they felt like doing- so nice of me, right?! 😉
Let me know if you try this! I foresee this being a new “go to” at-home workout as you don’t need much equipment to complete it.
Questions for you: What’s your favorite leg exercise? What’s your favorite fitness blog?
this is certainly for the young and not the young at heart!!! My legs like the walking!!! Have a great day.
You’re too funny, Jean! Have a great day!
Saved this one! Perfect at-home workout!
so good to hear! Let me know if/when you try it!
Hi Nick, My favorite leg exercise is walking, dancing or Party Bootcamp–I’m with my buddy Jean! I did do some aquarobics in the pool today–always a fave for the senior set!–Mom
water aerobics is a great workout because it’s so easy on your joints!
six risers? wow! This looks like a great one. I’m going to have to try this one once I’m home and “gym-less”. I’m going to need all the at-home workouts I can get!
You’ll love it:) Any time you need workouts let me know! or, come to boston and come to a class! xox
Just did this workout after a 2 mile run… was not a pretty sight after a booze heavy weekend with my girlfriends!
haha but don’t you feel so much better after you sweat out the booze?!
