The ACTION "Muscle" Challenge for this weekend!
The goal for this fun challenge is to create a fitness movement for the New Year with my close friends, family and clients :-)
You have 3min to get as many reps as possible; No Rest, straight through (set a timer to beep on each minute ) IT'S ONLY 3MIN OF YOUR DAY :-)
1min Anchored Sit-ups
1min Air Squat
1min Push-ups or Modified Push-ups
TOTAL=_________
Anchored Sit-ups = Sit in front of a Wall, place your Dumbbells anchored against wall. When you do your sit-up you must touch to wall with both hands for each rep.
Air Squat You can do a free squat, you may squat to a ball, chair, bench or whatever that will get you to have your hip crease even with your knees (90 degrees)
Push-ups or Modified Push-ups= You may do regular Push-ups OR Modified Push-ups. Remember to try and keep a nice bridge posture / plank in the push-up. In the bottom position for the push-up have your elbows in line with your shoulders (90 degrees), then push-up to top elbow lock out to count one rep. NOTHING can touch the floor. If your doing Modified Push-ups, keep your butt in the air a little bit, trying not to let your legs or stomach touch the floor.
Have fun and send me your scores :-) If you video this event send it to me, the top video will get put up on this site :-) Send your scores in by this Sunday please.
Winners will recieve a workout created by me, "just for you".

Not such a great idea to do this after a night out, and after doing FGB this morning, but thought 3 mins...what the hell, why not? Good way to get the heart and lung going again!!
