Saturday Morning Workout

IT'S SATURDAY MORNING! I know you probably want to sleep in, relax, maybe shop or watch a little basketball... and probably eat lots of chips & sweets and maybe even enjoy a margarita or two. And guess what—do all of it. But between the sleeping in and heading off to enjoy your Saturday, why not get in a quick workout and rev up that metabolism? Let's do it!

The SATURDAY MORNING WORKOUT:

1. TPU-KO's: This stands for T-push-up kick-out. Begin in a push-up position. Lower yourself down into a push-up, and when you come up, kick-out one leg and raise the opposite arm to make a T. Finish by going back to push-up position. 
• Targets: chest, shoulders, core
2. Upright rows with a squat: Standing with your feet a little wider than your shoulders and your toes slightly pointed out, lower your body to a squat position with the weight between your legs. Slowly raise the weight to chest-level, making a V with your arms. 
• Targets: shoulders, quads, hamstrings
3. Mountain climbers: Begin in a push-up position. In a running motion, switch your legs back and forth. I do these in 3-counts so every 3-times my right leg comes up, that counts as one.
• Targets: core, glutes, shoulders
4. Oblique side bends: Standing straight up, one hand on your hip and one hand holding a weight, bend to the side, activating your obliques.
• Targets: obliques

You can do this in the form of a 10-20-30 workout (10 TPU-KO's, 20 rows, 30 mountain climbers) or do each for a minute. Repeat the set as many times as you like.

And remember—no excuses! If you don't have a kettlebell, use a gallon of milk! After you're all sweaty and your body is energized, it's time to enjoy your Saturday. Let's get fit!
