The K.I.S.S. ~ Climb your mountains!
Supercharge your workout with mountain climbers.
Mountain climbers combine strength and cardio while working your core, arms, and legs.
Think of it as a one pot meal for your fitness.
1. THE PERFECT PLANK
- Place your body in a push-up position. Shoulders back and down. Hands directly under your shoulders.
- Engage your glutes and lower abdominals. Squeeze!
- For a modified plany, go to your knees. Or you can do it on the wall or on a counter.
- Focus on one spot on the floor.
- Hold for 15-30-45-60-90 seconds.
***Be careful not to tighten your neck and jaw. Keep your JAW and NECK relaxed. Also, do not drop your lower back creating a curve or round your back pushing your butt in the air. Not good!
2. THE ELEVATED MOUNTAIN CLIMBER
- From your perfect plank position, bring one knee in toward your chest, returning to the starting point. *Don’t sacrifice form.
- Switch to the other knee bringing it in towards the chest.
- Continue to alternate knees increasing your pace up to a moderate jog. *Keep good form. If you break good form, slow down or rest and then begin again.
- Use mountain climbers for 30-60 second intervals in between sets.
- You can use this as a HIIT workout out at the end. One minute full out climbing, rest 30-60 seconds. Repeat 4x or 8x)
***ALWAYS maintain good form!
“Over every mountain, a new path will be seen. Go climb your mountain today!”
