Try Michelle Bridges Personal Cardio And Strength Workout That You Can Do At Home

While we’re stuck at home, it’s extremely important that we keep moving in any way possible, because otherwise we’re just eating and doing no exercise, and that’s a highway leading straight to weight gain. So we’re going to give you two quick and easy workouts for both cardio and strength training extracted from Michelle Bridges’ book, ‘Low-carb Solution’.

“Eating more carbs than we need, day after day, and doing very little exercise is a one-way street to weight gain and disease,”

says Michelle Bridges, author of ‘Low-carb Solution’

Cardio Workout

For the cardio section, there will be exercises in one set of however many sets you can do until your drop (you’ll also need a skipping rope):

1. 1 min skipping
2. 10 x push-ups
3. 1 min bear crawls
4. 10 x squat jumps
5. 1 min skipping
6. 10 x ice skaters
7. 1 min bear crawls

Strength Workout

The strength section is designed in three rounds of 21, 15 and 9 reps for each exercise initially, although try and do as many rounds as you can. There are three exercises per round (this requires no equipment).

ROUND ONE

2. 15 x push-ups
3. 9 x Russian twists

ROUND TWO
