Today is strength and conditioning day, and without class as an option today I am going to give you a couple of different ideas to get in your work today.

Option 1: Do you have some dumbells laying around the house? Put a circuit together as follows:

4 Sets of the following group of exercises, 10 reps each. Rest 2 minutes between sets.


  • Overhead Presses

  • Squats with weights by sides

  • Bicep curls

  • Alternating reverse lunges with tricep kickback (10 each leg)

  • Renegade Rows (down in plank position, hands on weights - alternate pulling each dumbell in a row keeping your hips facing forward)

  • Burpees from plank to standing holding weights

Option 2:


No Weights? Lets do a bodyweight circuit, 4 sets, 10 reps, 2 min rest in between.



  • dive bomber pushups

  • air squats

  • explosive wall pushups (lean against wall feet 2 ft away and arms extended fall to wall and then push away explosively

  • plyometric lunges

  • Tricep dips off a bench

  • burpees

Have fun!
