First QWOD for the New Jumpstarters!

8/10/2010

Do a pushup and then go right into a side plank

If you're not sore after yesterday's workout, I apologize. I will bring the pain next time. But if you are sore (which you probably should be) then do today's Quick Workout Of the Day to stretch out and recover a bit. Enjoy!

QWOD for Tuesday, August 10th

1 minute jumping jacks
1 minute jump rope hops (stay on the balls of your foot)
6 bridges for 10 seconds each (keep those hips high)
2 supermans for 30 seconds each
20 dips on the edge of a chair/couch/bed
26 biceps curls (on 1 leg - switch legs halfway) holding 5-10lb weights/soup cans/gallons of water, etc.

Check out Josh's site for some great fitness tips. And if you're looking to get in shape in the NYC area, come on out to a Barefoot Benny Boot Camp!
