One Week of Home Workouts - Day 3
Day Three – Get Out and Recover
We know you can’t get out of the house much these days but today spend 30 minutes outside – jog, hike, walk, or bike. Pair this with the recovery flow either before as a warm up or after your time outside as a cool down.
What you will need:
Dumb Bell
Recovery Flow:
Fire Hydrants – 3 sets of 8 reps each side
On hands and knees, slowly lift your leg to the side up to hip level, keep your knee bent at a 90-degree angle. Slowly bring your knee back to the ground and repeat on the other side
Donkey Kicks – 3 sets of 8 reps each side
On hands and knees, slowly kick your right foot straight up, keeping your knee at a 90-degree angle while engaging your gluteal muscles, slowly pull your knee back to the ground and repeat on the other side.
Hip Circles Fwd/Rev – 3 sets of 8 reps each direction
Standing with feet hip width apart move at just your hips in a clockwise motion and then repeat in a counter-clockwise motion.
Bird Dogs – 3 sets of 8 reps each side
On hands and knees kick your right leg straight back while engaging your gluteal muscles, at the same time lift and reach your left arm forward straight in front of your head. Repeat on the opposite sides.
Plank Pull Through – 3 sets of 8 reps each side
From a high plank position, use your left hand to pull your dumbbell from your right side to your left, repeat with the right hand. You can do these with or without a weight.
