Full body calisthenics workout using only our body as resistance to increase strength, build muscle, strengthen the core and challenge our bodies! This may be a break from the dumbbells but it isn’t easy!

I am sure you know how much I love changing range of movement from 1/2 reps to full range or partials! And unilateral exercises! And complexes! And bodyweight exercises! It’s all in here!

All you will need is your mat, a chair for Bulgarian lunges, dips & decline push ups and a yoga block/thick book!

Each complex is 2 minutes duration, with 20 seconds rest inbetween!

I have missed these workouts and I remembered why I love them so much! The carry over to other forms of training is huge! Not only helping increase your strength and build that muscle but also core strength and body awareness! During bodyweight only exercises, I am focused on actually making it as challenging as possible!

During planks, whether moving or trying not to move whilst arms or legs are moving, try to keep hips down! Sometimes we can forget to think about this, particularly during dynamic planks such as plank rolls! I do too! Think about gaze straight down to mat, shoulders relaxed, quads tight!

During elevated curtesy lunges, aim to use that extra depth available by lowering knee to where possible yet still comfortable!

You can always make each exercise more challenging so make this your focus!!

Have fun and really enjoy the free feeling of body only!
