Ready for a new week? Over the next few days, we will again be focusing on functional strength, balance, coordination and flexibility, but with a different approach: this week will be almost exclusively bodyweight, and with a total body approach (functional total body strength and balance on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and some cardio, light exercise and active stretching on Tuesday and Thursday). I've never done anything like this before, let's hope it will be fun. Of course, if you don't want to go a full week without lifting weights, swap any video out for another one, make it work for you! 😉
If you didn't do last week but are curious about this new week, please feel free to jump in and have fun with us. 😁
Today, we've got an oldie: a workout meant for golfers. Do you have any experience with golf? I don't, but this workout seems to fit our theme perfectly, as it has three sections: functional strength, balance and flexibility. If you'd like to add some hiit today, there's a suggestion for a hiit and jump rope routine (with a warm-up). I don't have a jump rope, but I'll just mimic the movement, or do some jumping jacks. 😊 Our EC is a plank workout that looks really challenging. I think I might actually give it a try before the main workout so as to have more energy to give to it. We'll see...
"Stay Upright" Challenge - Day 8 Check-In
Hi challenge buddies,

I've never done anything like this before, let's hope it will be fun. Of course, if you don't want to go a full week without lifting weights, swap any video out for another one, make it work for you! 😉
