My recommended FE-Life workout today is a good full-body workout. You will need a mat, a plyo box, and a kettlebell.
- Target Muscles: full body
- 1-10 Difficulty Rating: 7.5
- Workout Time: 30 minutes
The Workout
Ensure that your muscles are warm; I recommend doing the Moji warm-up.
Do twenty-five of each of the following exercises with no rest between: box jumps, push-ups, kettlebell swings, v-ups.
Rest two minutes, then do another round. Do four rounds in total.
Modification Options
If you want to make the workout harder, add a set of burpees as the fifth exercise in the series. If you want to make it easier, do only two rounds, and or exchange jump roping for box jumps.
Bonus Add-on
Go for a brisk walk or a casual jog of at least two-miles a few hours before or after the workout.
Note
I post a new workout each day of the week. Clearly, “rest days” are prudent in anyone’s workout schedule. My advice is to select four or five of the workouts I recommend in a week, and do them over four or five days—one workout per day; rest on the other days. I always list the target muscles each routine calls upon. It would be wise to choose workouts that address the entire body over a given week.
Since I don’t (yet) have a plyo box, I find that the following pop-up exercise is a good alternative:
This is a great video Theodore. Indeed, pop-ups are a great alternative to box jumps. Thanks so much for sharing!
