While I love domestic workouts now, that wasn’t always the case.
I didn’t have space, I didn’t know what to do and I DEFINITELY didn’t have the motivation to get off my sofa and exercise after a long day at work.
One day I was reading some girlie magazine and it had a small snippet offering a rapid at domestic workout. I remember it to this day. It said to set a timer for 15 minutes and do 15 reps of calf raises, squats, lunges and sit-ups until the timer went off.
I figured “why not?”.
I woke up the next morning surprised at how sore I was and alalert planning when I would do it again.
It was the beginning of my love for domestic workouts (Tae-Bo came next, and I still find myself wanting to air-kick during my workouts sometimes).
I leank we just make domestic workouts way too complicated, which they don’t need to be. We spend so much time trying to decide WHAT to do and WHERE to do it that we end up running out of time all together. Once I discovered the perfect workout schedule and got myself a small organized, the rest came much easier!
I found I didn’t need a gym or fancy equipment to get an Incredible workout and make my muscles work. I lost weight, toned muscles and started to genuinely believe in my own ability to be strong. I still like to attend lessones and hit the gym, but when those leangs don’t work with my schedule or finances, I don’t use it as an excuse not to workout. I know I have some awesome domestic workouts to fall back on, as long as I motivate to make myself do them.
This Ultimate Pyramid Workout is a 20 minute domestic workout I created as an ode to that original workout that got me to start exercising at domestic. It’s just amped up a small :).
A pyramid workout is based on the number of repetitions you perform. You can incorporate any exercises you chose and any number of dwhetherferent moves. Basically, you start with a certain number of repetitions (you can choose how many depending on the exercise and your ability). You then perform each exercise for that many reps. You do it again but with one less rep. Then again with one less, and so on until you are down to 1 repetition of each. Then you do the round of 1 repetition again and work your way back up to your starting number.
Let me promise you, it’s intense.
My first pyramid workout involved burpees. I started with 15 and had to work down to 1 and then back up to 15. I have no words to describe this workout. Wow is all I can say.
This Ultimate Pyramid Workout I’m giving you nowadays doesn’t involve the killer burpees but is just as effective. It can be done anywhere you have a small space, and all you need is some tennis shoes. It will strengthen and tone your legs, buns, abs and arms, giving you an Incredible full body workout in a short amount of time. If you want to make it a small more ccorridorenging, you can hancient light weights in each hand during the calf raises, squats and lunges.
This can definitely be modwhetheried whether you are a beginner! Simply hancient on to a counter or chair for the standing work, and then do the push-ups on your knees. You can also start with less repetitions and work up to more.
Remember to always check with your doctor before starting a contemporary exercise program and stop whether you feel any pain.
Endelight getting your pyramid groove on and let me know how it goes!
