We are almost through the work week! I've been getting requests to put up an at home workout that you can do with zero equipment. So here it is my Barefoot Bootcamp (so called because you do it barefoot on a yoga mat).
Your goal is to do 2 sets of 10 repetitions!
Optional Warm Up - Yoga Sun Salutations http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aU62rE7PzQ8
This is an option part of your home workout but something I would highly recommend trying. It will get your blood flowing, warm up your muscles and get you focused for your workout.
Hip Bridge
Get those glutes working!
Body Weight Squats
Focus on pushing your hips back and lifting your chest to the ceiling.
Wall Sit
Challenge your thighs! Bend your knees to 90* and hold it as long as you can. Time yourself each time and you will see your progress.
Push Ups
Keep your abs pulled in tight and move nice and slow.
Lunges
Take a nice big step like your stepping over a puddle and lower your back knee to the ground. Focus on pushing through your bum muscles.
Swimmers
Lift opposite arm and leg as high as you can with out allowing yourself to twist.
Plank
Challenge your core! Focus on breathing and keeping your shoulders away from your ears!
Bicycle Crunches
Bring opposite elbow to opposite knee and do 10 each side.
After your finished your workout make sure you do some basic stretches for each muscle group. After your stretch I would also highly recommend doing 10 minutes of relaxation and deep breathing to relax and de-stress. It will help your mental and physical recovery!
I hope you enjoyed the barefoot bootcamp and as always if you have any comments or questions drop me a line!
Stay Healthy!
Andrea :)
