My workout Today
My workout today can fall under the quick workout category.
When COVID-19 hit I had to modify my workouts. As a matter of fact, I missed a whole lot of workouts do to not knowing (Meaning not figuring out) how to schedule around work and family activities.
I am thankful to God in Jesus name, to be blessed with a physical and essential job. But I knew to be able to work at a high level, have less chance of injury and stay in shape. I had to find a way to get a workout.
At first, I just modified my nutrition. As not to gain access weight because of not working out.
After a while God blessed me with the idea to get up early enough to workout in the morning before going to work. If I get up early enough 😊
These are the exercises that I do. Doing 1 – 2 sets, 3 – 5 times a week.
A person can modify them or progress them as needed. If a person has a question on how to do this. They should hire a personal trainer for at least 1 or 2 sessions, after receiving the okay to exercise by their doctor.
Body-weight squats, 5 – 10 reps
Wall push-ups, 10 – 15 reps
Push-ups, 10 – 15 reps
Pull-ups, 5 – 10 reps
One-legged bridging, 10 reps
Sit-ups, 10 reps
Planks, 30 sec
Side planks, haven’t done these in a while but may add them back in.
I sometimes increase the reps according to how I feel and how much time I have.
Besides the help of a Fitness Professional/Fitness Coach/Personal Trainer. Two good websites to use after receiving the okay to exercise from your doctor are as follows. Exrx and Shapfit. Muscle and Strength and Bodybuilding{.}com may also be good resources.
Now that the gyms are open again. I do get one day in at the gym most weeks and Lord willing may add another day. We’ll see 😊
Before bed I do my foam rolling and stretching if I can.
I hope this is helpful to you as you strive for a healthier lifestyle as well.
