Hello,
It is finally Friday. I thoroughly love Fridays because it
means the week has finally come to a close and that there is always time for a
workout. And this weekend sure calls for an intense workout.
All week my friends and I have been doing a video workout.
And might I say it sure has been very difficult, but well worth it. Through the
workouts I have been keeping tabs on some of my favorite exercises.
The first exercise
that I enjoyed is called “tricep-dips”. How it is done is you first lie on your
back and then lift your backside up so you are in a crab-like position. To make
the exercise more difficult, put your hands the same direction your feet are
facing. See image for more assistance. Bend your elbows at an angle. Do three sets
of twelve.
Another
exercise that I enjoyed was a burpee variation. You start in a stand up
position with your hands above your head. Then crouch down in a plank position.
Once you get in that position do four pushups. Then immediately transition into
eight mountain climbers. Finally, stand up and repeat the whole process. Do three
sets of 12.
The
final exercise that I enjoyed which was the most painful is basically a squat.
You start with your legs shoulder length apart and slightly bent. You then bend
your knees and bring your elbows to your knees. Repeat. Do three sets of 12.
My favorite part of posting each week is finding an
inspirational Bible verse. This week the exercise plan is very difficult and
takes motivation so “The
amount you give will determine the amount you get back” Luke 6:38. Keep this
verse in mind in your daily workouts and as well as throughout the week.
God
Bless.

The bible verse you chose was so true to exercising, as well as life in general. I like the exercise ideas-thanks! Will be sure to try them out this week while at the gym, in my journey to not gain the 'freshman 15'!
ReplyDeleteWhen I did the workout I felt like it was pretty easy! It worked some of my muscles that aren't usually worked on which is nice! Love the bible verse as usual!
