Hey there everyone! Hope you enjoyed last weeks installment of the "Functional Capacity Workout." I thought I would give you a workout this week that needs no equipment at all and best of all you can do it inside or outside. Body weight exercises are great if you have little money or perhaps you are in an area that has no access to equipment. It is also a great way to break away from the normal hum drum of the gym. You can mix it up with some cardio between sets also. You can also compete against friends by either keeping track of the time it takes you to accomplish the workout or how many reps you do during the workout. Either way enjoy and keep on moving.
Start with jumping jacks (side straddle hops for you military guys) great total body warm up
crunches legs up at 90 degrees
reverse crunches (head stays on ground and legs/pelvis curl up toward head)
push ups (traditional or on knees)
squats with arms in front eye level
squat thrusts
Again, you can do 20 reps of each exercise and keep track of time or you can do as many as you can and keep track of reps.
Good Luck!
