Working 9 to 5, what a way to make a living! Who else remembers that movie? Song? Anyone… Bueller? I was surfing the internets today and saw an article about 75 things that college freshmen have never experienced first hand.
Like living in a world with Kurt Cobain, suitcases that could only be carried and not rolled, and so on. Dang, I’m old. I still have records in my garage! Vinyl records – LPs and 45s for those of you who have a clue what I’m talking about. Nothing to play them on but I can’t seem to part with them. Oh, the songs I could listen to. 😉
I put together a quick bodyweight workout that hits all the major body parts and keeps you entertained from 9 to 5. I love having something to concentrate on while I’m working out so that I forget I’m really working. This one will have you keeping track of reps with each round. Plus you get to count down to the end and each round gets shorter as you get more tired.
It should take you about 30 minutes to complete and at most requires a single dumbbell. If you don’t have access to a dumbbell or kettlebell, you can substitute jumping jacks or rope jumping instead, so again no excuses from the home team with no equipment. I’ve got you covered too with this one.
I like to use a timer and just set it at the start. I keep track of the total time and try to beat it the next time I do the workout. If it gets to be too easy, you can add more rounds and count down past 5 reps each. Or get wild and count down to 5 and then back up to 9 again. Would that be considered overtime?
Let me know what you think. I love hearing about your results from trying the workouts. I also want to know if they’re too easy for you! I can step it up for sure. 😉
