Creating my own workouts

With the help of my friend, Debra, I’ve decided to try to create my own workout once a week. I am not a certified anything, so these are just my own workouts for my own benefit that anyone is welcome to enjoy as well. They certainly can make you sweat. Make sure you pay attention to proper form and ask you doctor and disclaimer disclaimer.

I did a 15 minute workout with 5 exercises. 15 rounds of 10 seconds rest, 50 seconds on.

Dive bombers 10, 8, 8

High Knees 152, 149, 148

One Leg Squat 16, 11, 11

Burpees (with the Ugi ball) 7, 7, 7

90 degree abs 26, 28, 24

Dive bombers: start with your legs wide apart and your butt up in the air, head down. Your body should create an upside down V. Your back is straight. From there curve your head down and then up, lifting your head towards the ceiling, lowering your butt in a smooth motion. Your legs and stomach do not touch the ground. From there, push yourself back up so your head is towards the ground again. This is one rep.

High Knees: Lift your knees as high and as fast as you can.

One Leg Squat: I started out doing one leg squats with a toe touch, but found I was losing form. My back was curving. I am terrible at these, so I can’t get as low as others. Just try to do a squat with leg straight out in front of you. Make sure to keep your back as straight as possible, and to keep your knee from going over your toes. Alternate legs.

Burpees (with the Ugi ball): I did my burpees with an ugi ball, but you can get just as good of a workout by doing the same thing without the Ugi. You’ll be able to do more reps. Jump out into a plank. Do a pushup (on Ugi or not). Then jump feet into squat position. Jump (with or without Ugi) into the air. This is one rep.

90 degree abs: I did this with an Ugi also, however, using any kind of stable (it won’t fall on your face) weight, like a medicine ball, or even a pillow, will be challenging. Keeping your legs up at a 90 degree angle, sit up and touch whatever is resting on your legs. It could be nothing, just keep your legs as stable as possible.
