I love to go to the gym and work out, but sometimes its honestly just not possible....I may miss a day here and there...so I love some at home easy workouts.
For the work outs I'm going to show you, you'll need two things....
Any size medicine ball.
Any size weights.
Start as you normally would with bicep curls, with your arms fully extended at your sides. Curl the weights halfway up and lower back down for seven reps. Lift the weights only half way each time.
Then start at the half way point and do another seven reps to the top motion.
Lastly do another seven full reps from bottom all the way to top motion.
Do 21's in three to four sets.
Stand with feet wider than shoulder width, holding your medicine ball above your head, arms straight and abs contracted. Bend your knees to squat down while moving your ball in an arc across your body, bringing it to the outside of your calf. Reverse the move and return to starting position, raising the ball as you stand.
Repeat on opposite side.
3 reps of 20 on each side.
Muscles worked:
External obliques
Internal obliques
Quadriceps
Gluteus maximus
Gastrocnemius
Hamstrings
Middle deltois
Anterior deltoids
Trapezius
Transverse abdominis
this routine also totally kicks my trash and you don't need any free weights.
Like usual I took my photo outside! Our lighting is awful. I know I say this almost every post, but it really is and this still is not the best lighting... I promise it was even prettier and more delicious than this picture gives it justice.
