Travel Workouts: 20 minute band workout

It's Summertime! To me that means being outside and traveling as much as possible. When I travel I aim to take advantage of my beautiful surroundings for activities - hiking in the mountains, snorkeling in the ocean, etc. I still like to get sneak in a strength workout when there is a little downtime.  We put together a Summer Workout Series for Ambition Athletics clients that I want to share with you here.

This workout requires only a resistance band and takes about 20 minutes to complete.  You will really feel your Glutes working, which I think we can all appreciate!

15 MINUTE KETTLEBELL FAT BLASTER

I love the holidays, but I know this time of year means many people are crunched for time and overly stressed. Between all the parties, baking, shopping, etc you all have less energy to get to the gym and plan out a workout. But we won't let that stop us from being strong and healthy right?!!  

Taking 20 minutes out of your day to move will make you more productive and happier overall.

This workout is simple, fast, and effective.  All you need is a kettlebell or two.  Watch the video and make regressions or adjustments as you need to.  Push-ups can be done on the ground or an elevated surface. All of these exercises can also be done with a single kettlebell, just do one arm or leg at a time!  

5 Clean and Push Press
10 Reverse Lunges (alternating legs)
10 Bent Over Rows (alternating arms)
5 Pushups
10 Double Swings

SPRING SWING INTO SHAPE CHALLENGE!

This workout will whip your booty into shape!

5 Swings
1 Goblet Squat (or Kettlebell row, overhead press, push up, etc)
10 Swings
2 Goblet Squats (or Kettlebell rows, overhead presses, push ups, etc)
15 Swings
3 Goblet Squats (or Kettlebell rows, overhead presses, push ups, etc)
20 Swings

Rest/Mobility 60 seconds:
Hip circles or hip flexor stretch

Repeat 4-5 rounds (each round is 50 swings!)

Perform a variation of this workout 3-4 times a week and you will be more than ready for those bikinis and short shorts.

**Advanced version:
Increase your swing numbers from 5, 10, 15 & 20 to 10, 15, 25, & 50.  It's challenging to perform 50 swings with good form, so don't rush it and be sure not to go to heavy with your kettlebell selection

    All Bodyweight Core Glutes Kettlebell Workout

    My Style...

    My training style is creative, fun and effective because that's what keeps us moving!  I combine kettlebells, bodyweight strength training, balance, and PLAY into well rounded, safe workouts. If it isn't fun, we won't do it - so get out there and climb, skip, handstand...anything that makes you smile and a little better than yesterday!
