Total Body Toning Home Workout

This weeks workout is a full body home toning workout.

I have used one piece of equipment called a Resistance Band and you can purchase them onine or at any sports store.

I recommend the Power Tubes as they are versatile and easy to use.

I recommend using bands because most home workouts do not use the back muscles and most people become strong in the shoulders and chest and very weak in the upper back.

This is not good if you are a desk bound office worker as it will lead to poor posture and potential shoulder injuries if you train a lot.

How To Perform The Workout:

Warm up:

• Perform each exercise for 5-10 reps at a controlled pace. 

Workout:

• Perform the 6 exercises in a row and then rest for 1-2 minutes depending on your fitness level.
• Round 1 - perform 10 reps of each exercise. When it is a single sided exercise like lunges, perform 10 reps on each leg.
• Round 2 - perform 15 reps of each exercise.
• Round 3 - perform 20 reps of each exercise.

Cooldown:

• Stretch all major muscles used.
