Workout Wednesday // Full Body- no weights needed!

HI friends!! Happy Wednesday (*thursday*) ! I am happy to announce that I am FINALLY getting to upload videos to go with theses workouts for your viewing if you’re unsure of the moves, so STAY TUNED! I promise they’re coming!!!

Little pre info about this workout, since getting back into a gym and diving into my personal fitness / nutrition goals I tend to really get into a routine- which don’t get me wrong, ya girl LOVES routines. But sometimes getting into a strict fitness routine is not good for you! SO I like switching things up randomly to keep my body guessing, and I might be the only one like this, but when I know that I’m gonna be doing something different for the day I get SO fired up and it motivates me even more for the workout!

So I came up with this idea to do a whole full body workout with a long resistance band only! This kind of workout is really great for focusing on the movement specifically, AND with gyms reopening its so important to focus on the basics and really work on the mind/muscle connection- and this workout will allow you to do just that!

This is a high rep circuit, so you’ll go through each exercise for about 30 reps unless otherwise specified and then you will go for 5 rounds!

• upright row // put the resistance band under your feet and hold it in your hands and perform and upright row
• glute kickback (each leg) // start by kneeling, put the loop of the resistance band on the bottom of your shoe, and hold the top of the bands in your hands and kick your leg back
• squats // put the band around the back of your neck, and the bottom of the band under your feet & just squat.
• bicep curl // have the bottom of the band underneath your shoes, and the rest of it in your hands and curl
• behind head shoulder press // have the bottom of the band beneath your shoes and the band in the palm of your hands (behind your head) and push up and together
• face pulls // sit on your butt and have the band around your feet and pull the band tight (to create more resistance) and pull towards your face!
• burpees (ONLY 12) – no band for this one just have a grand ole time! 😉

Run through this circuit 5 times! For an extra challenge, on the 4th time you do this- time yourself so that you can try to beat your time in the last round!! WOO! Good luck! I will be uploading the video to go along with this tomorrow!
