Body weight exercise routine

January 12th, 2009 admin No comments

Need some exercises to get started? Try this body weight exercise routine:

10 jumping jacks

No rest

10 toe touches

Rest 1 minute and repeat both exercises one time

10 push ups

No rest

10 frog sit ups
Get in a sit-up position, but instead of placing your feet on the floor, place the bottoms of your feet together and spread your knees apart. With your hands behind your head, tighten your ab muscles and use them to lift your shoulders off the floor. Keeping your abs tight, lower your shoulders to the floor.

No rest

Repeat both exercises twice

Rest 1 minute

20 body weight squats (video)

Rest 1 minute

Repeat 1 time

Plank, 30 seconds (video)

No rest

Jack-knife crunches (how to link)

Rest 1 minute

Repeat both exercises 2 times

Perform this routine on alternating days three times weekly followed by 20 minutes of cardio exercise at a moderate intensity (able to hold a conversation)

On the alternating days, perform 30 minutes of low intensity cardio exercise.
