This month I'm preparing you for your holiday workouts! So make sure you read up on all the November blogs! This time I'm going to show you a quick resistance band workout. Bands are easy to travel with and take up little space in your bag. I recommend taking at least 2 bands, one that is light and one medium resistance. Make sure to use a band that is challenging the muscles for each exercise. Your muscles should be getting tired by the last few reps of each exercise. If they don't, you should consider using a heavier band.
Perform this sequence 2-3x's 1. Jumping Jacks- 1 min 2. Band Bicep Curl- 15 reps 3. Jump Squats- 15 reps 4. Band Shoulder Press- 15 reps 5. Push Ups- 12 reps 6. Jumping Wide Leg Squats- 15 reps 7. Band Rear Delt Row- 15 each arm 8. Band Adductor/Abductor Side Walking- 30 reps total (15 each direction)
Next RUN IN PLACE for 1 minute Next do JUMPING JACKS for 1 minute REPEAT (or if you have a jump rope do 5 mins of jumping instead)
REST for 30 secs to 1 min and then... REPEAT ENTIRE SEQUENCE
