Full Body Blast Workout

I have recently given up my gym membership, so now I will be challenging myself to keep my fitness momentum going in new environments.  That can be a struggle when you become spoiled with all the equipment a gym has to offer, but it can be done.  If you trying to workout at home, it helps to have some kind of weights or resistance bands.  They will help you with progression.

Today's workout will be a full body blast that will give you both weight training and cardio.  If you don't have weights or resistance bands, find something around the house that can give some weight or make your own.  Some examples: a brick from your yard, jug of milk or an empty milk jug filled with sand.  Just make sure you can hold on to it.

This is a circuit workout.  You will do as much of each exercise as you can for 50 seconds and then rest for 10 seconds until you complete the circuit.  Rest 30 seconds to 1 minute between the circuits.

Repeat each circuit 3 times.  Set a timer to work for 50 seconds and rest for 10 seconds.

This is my workout plan for today.  Will you give it a try with me?
