Circuit Workout

My online trainer suggests the following circuit training from now until Sunday, when she posts the workout video:

**Needs: bottle of water, towel, your phone to use the timer & some music!

I. Warm-up: 5mins jog in your garden or hood. Just get yourself warmed up!

II. Walking lunges: with hands on hip, shoulders back, chest out do 2MINS non-stop walking lunges across your room. If you can't do them walking, stay still, go close to a wall like in the pic, hands on hips and keep switching legs for 2mins NON-STOP. Rest 30s.

III. Wall Pushups: these will work your chest & triceps. Let's start with building your strength in the upper body so that over time you can get to the pushups on your toes. Make sure you use your upper body to do the movement. The closer your body is to the wall the easier it is. Do this for 2mins NON-STOP. Yes, ladies you are going to burn!! Move your body farther from the wall to make it harder. Rest 30s.

IV. Lying Ab kicks: this will work your abs, particularly your lower abs. Make sure you activate your abs as much as possible whilst you are doing this i.e. squeeze them as much as you can. Keep your back pressed hard against the floor & slowly cycle legs in & out, pointing your toes & stretching legs out. To make it easy, keep your legs higher. To make it harder cycle them lower, but ensure your back does NOT lift off the ground. Do this for 2mins non- stop. Rest for 1min.

V. Interval training to get your cardio/heart health better: Ok now I want you to finish off the circuit in your garden, by:
1. jogging & counting to 30 as you jog
2. then sprint whilst counting to 30
3. then jog counting to 30 and finish
4. sprint counting to 30. Rest for 2mins. START CIRCUIT AGAIN FROM LUNGES.

**These should be done in a circuit, which means 1 after another. Take a 2min break then start again except for the warm-up. Do this for 3 rounds then stretch.

Let's have fun while doing it, ladies!
