Killer No Equipment Travel Workout

www.FemaleFatLossOver40/KillerNoEqpmtTravelWorkout from Shawna Kaminski on Vimeo.

Check out this awesome travel workout that I did on my latest business trip. As always I made up the set and then once I do that, I make myself stick to it. I have to say that this one nearly killed me. Ten tri-sets, as you’ll see in the video may be a little much. You may only do five sets, or break the workout up so that you get a break half way through.

I loved this workout though because it was super fast and super hard. I wanted to target my core and it was ON FIRE!

My challenge to myself is to do 200 push ups a day. I suggest you set some kind of physical challenge that you hold yourself accountable for every day. If you’re not in any kind of organized fitness program, at least it’s a start. I’m an avid trainer as you know, and I love to do this sort of thing for myself. It’s a fun challenge and I’ve noticed an improvement in upper body and core strength. Plus, it’s a mental challenge to make myself get down to it even when I don’t want to. Today my son and I did the push ups together for fun and we decided to use my dog’s squeaky ball as a measure of depth so we didn’t cheat. We ended up laughing too hard as my dog decided to get in on the action as he tried to steal the ball while we did push ups over top.

What will you challenge yourself too? Let’s inspire each other! Give me a comment!

    Dear Shawna,
    I have always heard that I should rest muscle groups for at least 24 hours, is this not true or is it under investigation.

    Keep it Fit,
    Nena

    Nena,
    When you train at high intensities with heavy weights you may need more than 24 hours to recover.

    However, when you train with body weight and higher reps, you can get away with 24 hours between workouts, much like marathon running. Runners can run every day, different distances/pace etc, but they still can run daily.

    As you get more fit, your recovery time also decreases.

    Of course you need to listen to your body and if you’re too tired or sore, you may need a little more time to recover. If you are need to exercise, you may also need more recovery and as we age, we may need more recovery time. Only YOU know your body. I can make recommendations. There is NO reason why you can’t do SOME sort of exercise daily.

    Hope that helps. I’m going to post this on the blog if you don’t mind as others may have a similar question.

    Sincerely,
    Shawna
