Do It Anywhere...

Couldn’t get your exercise on today? Here are some ideas for you to get you feeling strong, boost metabolism and burn calories anywhere!

Waist Trimmer

Sit towards the edge of a chair with your back perfectly straight and your hips firmly planted. Hold on to a water bottle, a book, or a dumbbell with both hands at chest-level. Keeping your hips still and squared toward the front, rotate your torso to the left, then back to center, and to the right. Keep abs contracted and use a slow, controlled motion so that your abs and obliques––not your arms––do the work. Rotate to each side 15-20 times and complete 2-3 sets.

Counter Push-Ups

Assist your push-ups by doing them against any counter, desk or sturdy table rather than on the floor. Keeping elbows in and legs straight, do 2-3 sets of 15-20 push-ups.

Killer Wall Sits

Stand with your back flat against a wall or door. Keeping your entire back against the wall, walk your feet out about one-and-a-half feet in front of you. With your feet shoulder-distance apart and your weight in your heels, slide your back down the wall into you're in a sitting position, you're thighs parallel to the floor. Hold this position for at least 30 seconds. Slowly slide back up the wall and repeat 3 times.

Chair Ab Tilt

Scoot to the edge of a chair as you did in the Waist Trimmer. Lean back, feeling all of your abdominal muscles engage, but don't let your back touch the back of the chair. Hold for as long as you can, then return to sitting upright. Remember to breathe, and repeat this several times throughout the day, strengthening your back, core, and abs.
