Exercise Band Workout
Sweat…. sweat….sweat it out! Sweat is just fat crying and this little workout is sure to get you wailing!
A few weeks ago I received a great exercise band from Nature’s Bounty as part of a facebook promotion they were running. But let’s be honest I’m a runner and wasn’t really sure what to do with it. After chatting with some folks about different ideas I came up with this super quick and CRAZY intense band workout.
For the biceps curls keep your arms close to your body and control the motion! The downs are just as important and as the ups. It’s 20 seconds control your breathing and your form. Again I’m not a certified trainer or medical advisor I am simply sharing with you a workout I am currently doing. Please consult with a profession before beginning a new workout.
Biceps Curls: Arms
Rowing Arms: Shoulders
This is also a tummy trimmer if you do them this way. You can also stand similar to the biceps curls but pull arms up in towing motion to really work your shoulders.
Jumping Squats: Buns, Legs & Belly
For this you will need to wrap the band around an object that is NOT movable. A tree, post or kickboxing weighted punching bag at the gym. Wrap the band around the object and hold on to the handles. For this you don’t want to use the band to pull up on but rather as a stability check. This is a slights altered version of TRX.
Calf Raises/Leg Lifts: working your legs and inner thighs
And of course like every good workout you need a plank! I was sweating so badly into this work out after the first 4 :20 I knew it was going to be a good burn. Remember the point of this is to do as many for these as you can in the 20 seconds with correct form and posture.
Today is a VERY special day at our house! My little mister is turning 5! Love him!
Breakfast today is not healthy looking at all and I’m sure will include sprinkle pancakes and cupcakes! Happy June 20th to all.
