COOL DOWN

📌 ALTERNATING CHEST PRESS - pinch the shoulder blades together to rise the chest up which will create a small arch in the low back which is fine for this exercise. Hands at 45 degree angle to the body and use the chest to press up, lower to the middle of the chest (nipple line). When alternating, each side gets a slightly longer rest between reps which means you can increase the resistance!

📌 NARROW SQUAT - feet are hip width distance apart. Tight core, sit back and down. Press hard through the feet to come up. You can elevate the heels (on a book) to get to a better depth.

📌 CLOSE GRIP ROW - engage the core to support the spine in this bent over position. Row one or two dumbbells held close together, up into the ribcage. Lower with control.

I have a full time career outside fitness, children still at home and a lot of ‘livin to do so my workouts need to be SHORT but EFFECTIVE. I’m a certified personal trainer and an AB-solute NERD 🤓 when it comes to exercise science which is why results are this great, in only half the time!

Weight workouts using combo sets are insanely time efficient which improve consistency, helping you reach your goals faster than using traditional/boring straight sets. The exercises in each combo involve different muscle groups so shoulders, back and chest are resting while working legs, for example.

Complete three, 30 minute full body workouts each week, leaving a recovery day between sessions. Notice I didn’t say “rest day”. Active recovery includes any form of movement, including walking. Movement increases blood flow, delivering oxygen to sore muscles helping them to recover faster and feel better, sooner!
