Want to work out with a buddy? Try some of these exercises:
Handclap plank - both starting off on the ground, raise yourselves up with one arm and slap hands, alternating each time.
V-sit side touch & pass - never declining and holding the v sit, twist and touch both sides and then pass the mediball off to your partner. Both must always twist and touch.
Mediball crunch - get your partner to stand over you and lock your feet into their legs. Crunch up, pass the mediball to them and come back down, then crunch up and grab the mediball again, repeat.
Crunch & stand - Crunch and using your core stand up, throw two punches when you reach the top, then lower yourself back down. Make sure your partner gives you a slight pull on your legs when you’re coming up!
Reward yourself with money! For example, each time you complete one cardio session add $1 to your cardio jar, and each time you complete your weights session add $2 to your weights jar. Do this for 4 weeks and at the end of the month take your earnings and buy yourself something nice!
1. The Corkscrew: Stick your legs out in front of you and move them slowly around in a circle in each direction. Be sure to go slowly! Repeat 10 times in each direction.
2. The Four: Lie on the ground with one leg crossed over the other at the knee. Lift your bottom leg straight up in the air and back down again. Repeat 10 times on each side.
3. The Seated Arm Circle: Sit on your tailbone with your feet lifted up in the air (if you can’t do this, keep your toes on the floor) and your back straight. Hold your arms above your knees and move them in a circular motion until they’re back where they started. Repeat 10 times clockwise, 10 times counterclockwise.
4. The Bicycle Crunch: Lie on your back with your head and neck lifted and one knee lifted towards your chest. Alternate your legs back and forth 3 times, doing a mini-crunch on the 3rd time. If this puts too much strain on your neck, leave your head on the ground.
