Last week's workout

Time goes fast! I started planning my class for Monday and realized I hadn't shared last Monday's class with you. It was pretty simple but still hard for me!

Warm-up
Twenty reps of each, four rounds of the following:
Split lunge (back leg on ball) using a weighted bar for stability or holding bar above head
One-legged dead lifts with bar (can use handweights any time instead of bar)
Pushups (with legs on ball)
Ab crunches with ball (pull knees into chest as pull ball from knees to toes)
Overhead press (bar or ball)
Biceps Curl
Overhead triceps press (lying on ball)
Squats (can add jump to make it harder)

Hope you all have a restful Sunday and are ready to workout hard come Monday!

Toilet Legs

Last week's workout gave us toilet legs. You know, when your backside hurts so bad you can't sit down on the toilet without crying. One lady swore she was installing bars in her bathroom! Let me know if you feel the love when you try the workout.

Using balls and bars

Warm-up

Holding medicine ball - lower to right toe, swing up to left side, high above head and twist, repeat 20-30 times then switch sides
Ab twist - sitting, lean back and touch ball side to side on the ground, twisting

Lunges around the entire gym with weighted bar on shoulders - Our gym is huge, two basketball courts, we were shaking halfway through.
Run around the gym with weighted bar over head
Run backward around gym
Jumping Jacks

30-50 reps of the following:
Cleans
Dead Lifts
Squats (with jumps)
Sweeps
Biceps Curl
Triceps Kickback

Cool down with plank, side plank, and yoga.

Fun, eh?
