Your Weekly Bodyweight Workout

Next week, schedules get a little bit limited at your favorite studios and gyms, so you may need to adjust your workout routine. If you’re stuck between a rock and a hard place without a place to sweat, fear not, your body is your gym. Use this bodyweight workout to get fit some fitness into your day no matter where you are.

This workout has two different elements, a 4 minute AMRAP set, or a set during which you’ll do As Many Reps As Possible (AMPAP). You’ll go through 10 reps of the three exercise on repeat as quickly as you can until your time is up. If you’re thinking, “that sounds like fun,” you’re right.

For the next set, you’ll do each exercise for 45 seconds and then allow 15 seconds of rest before moving onto the next exercise. Go through series 1 and series 2 three total times.
