More @ home workouts

What’s Up

My last post was about at home workouts due to Corona. Since this is a workout blog I wanted to share more with ya’ll. My last post was directed towards core/abs, glutes, obliques and legs and since that is personally what I strive to work most for my body, this post is also directed towards those body parts but these are different workouts. Since my ultimate goal is to lose weight, tone up my stomach area, and build muscle in my legs, these workouts are beneficial. My next post will be focused on arm workouts since I haven’t covered that yet.

The Details

These workouts are definitely more challenging than ones I’ve posted before, but they are still directed towards the same areas of the body.

This first workout is for abs, obliques and somewhat legs. The key to working the obliques is that whatever side you are working make sure your weight is on the side. To make sure you are doing this feel all the weight on that glute on the floor, whether it is left or right. Keeping your legs straight and pointing your toes helps with balance for this workout.

This next workout works the same as the last one, abs, obliques and somewhat legs. This one is also not a cantered weight workout and is directed towards each side, for obliques. It another balance one as well which is a lot more challenging and works your core more. If you are struggling to keep balance rest your foot on a wall like I did in the video, it will help.

For this next workout, your legs are being worked. I have noticed since the gyms closed that my leg muscle in my calf and quad area have lessened. It hard to keep muscle there when you don’t have a leg press or any other leg directed machine at your house, sadly. Even though my legs are losing muscle I still work them to try to maintain what I still have. It important to have socks on for this workout because you need to be able to slide. It is pretty self explanatory, just like squats and lunges.

Workout number 4 is for your legs! This one is very simple. It is just squats but after you squat you go into a calf raise. It is juts more beneficial for toning your muscle in your legs when you press into a calf raise.

This workout is pretty tough. Not only is it working core/abs but it is a little mini HIIT workout like I’ve explained in past posts. It challenging but once you push through you feel great.

For this workout, balance is key so many rest your foot against a wall again if needed. In this workout you are toning your obliques and abs. I love this workout because you really feel the burn.

In this exercise you are working full body. It is the hardest one out of all of them but it is 100% my favorite. Your arms are being worked and you WILL feel the burn. You need to make sure that your hands are positioned to where your fingers are facing your body. That is key for this workout. Straightening your legs helps with this workout. Besides arms, your legs are slightly being worked and your core is indefinitely.

Challenge

Now that we have looked at some of my exercises I want to show you where I get a lot of my inspiration for home workouts. I haven’t done any of these but they are so incredible to watch and feel motivated by. These show ways to use your at home furniture.

Progress

I have realized that I have only posted progress pics focusing on weight loss so I wanted to share a picture I took specifically of my leg muscle that I have built. I noticed my legs have became more tone since I stopped going to gym because of corona and have been running outside verses a treadmill!
