Motion is Life ~ The “Blech” Work Out!
Posted by Dr. Mom Online in Exercise on October 25, 2009It’s the “blech” work out because that’s how I felt about working out that day! This is Friday’s work out. I was having a lower energy day, physically… too much going on, etc.
I put off working out until really late in the day (not a good idea)… but I had a lot of demands to meet earlier in the day.
So be it.
Anyhow, as I was about to pour myself a little glass of red wine and sit down on the couch to play the role of “I’m too stressed and too tired”, I gave myself an attitude adjustment (I’m a Doctor of Chiropractic – I can safely do those sorts of things, you know!). I skipped the wine, skipped the pithy-ness, put on some work out clothes and headed upstairs.
Sorry mi familia… dinner must wait ’til mama moves her gluteal region!
This wasn’t an intense work out. This was a “it’s better than sitting on the couch work out”. Some days are like that. It’s good to embrace them all!
The work out:
150 alternating lunges onto Bosu ball while holding medicine ball – 25 with a twist, 25 with ball held straight overhead, 25 with a twist, 25 overhead… you get the idea
25 decline push-ups with feet up on exercise ball – * held the 26th in full contraction position for about 10-12 seconds
15 chin-ups with knees up – * held 16th for about 10 seconds
25 squats on round side of Bosu ball with medicine ball held straight overhead
25 wide stance squats, toes out, with 2 x 35 lb. dumbbells on shoulders – * held 26th in full squat for about 30 seconds
90 seconds straight-armed plank pose
1 minute (each side) one-arm side plank
2 minutes wall squat, medicine ball on lap
1 minute straight-arm plank pose, hands on medicine ball
Abs: on round side of Bosu, 100 crunch variations to the front, 50 to each side
Total time… good question. Not long!
