Snow Day Workout/Day 26 of the 12 Days Fitness Challenge

Housebound Workout: Push-up and Step Challenge 

Oh the weather outside is frightful – and the parking lot isn’t plowed, so classes are cancelled today. That’s still no excuse not to workout. Here’s a housebound workout for you to do instead.

Warm-up 

10 Walk outs

20/20 In-place high knee jogs

Repeat two more times

Workout

Part 1 – Pick a challenging plank push-up variation (NO KNEES!) – incline (hands elevated on window sill, counter, chairs, step), floor, decline, close grip – and do as many PERFECT push-ups as you can. You may rest in plank position if necessary, but once you can no longer push yourself up, the challenge is over. Post your push-up variation and number to comments.

Part 2 – Do 10 rounds of 30 seconds on/30 seconds of stair climb. Run up every other step and run down EVERY step for 30 seconds. Recover for 30 seconds and repeat 9 more times.
