Summer is here. That means longer days, less clothing and
(hopefully) more exercise. Getting enough exercise and being active is easier
in summer - when the weather is nice, we simply feel the need to be outside and
do things.
No time or opportunity to go to the gym to work on your
beach figure? No problem! Functional self-weight workouts can be done anywhere
- even on vacation. It's about adapting to one's surroundings - our fitness
depends on our adaptability.
You only need little
space to work and no equipment: No matter where in the world you are, this
intelligent summer self-weight workout can be done anywhere. The only equipment
you needed is your own body weight.
SUMMER ONE
WEIGHT WORKOUT
This summer self-weight workout is effective and
challenging. We recommend that beginners repeat it two to three times a week.
Increase the number of repetitions as your fitness level increases.
1. EXPLOSIVE
PUSH-UPS x 5
First it is the turn of the upper body. Explosive push-ups
improve posture and strengthen the core. Often we use the upper body less than
the lower body, which is why it is so important to train it with targeted
exercises like this one. Learn here the explosive push-ups in the style of EVO.
2. DEEP SQUATS
x 15
Go deep into the squat. The feet stand shoulder-width apart
and point slightly outwards. Deep squats are one of the most important
functional exercises and should be part of every workout to improve strength,
flexibility and balance. In our we will show you how to master the deep squats
like a pro.
3. V-SITS x 10
Now is the time for your abs. V-Sits are ideal for
exercising the core, thighs and hamstrings. The more explosive you do the
movements, the greater the effect. In this V-Sit video tutorial, you will learn
how to perform the movement to get even closer to your goal of a perfectly
defined summer body.
4. BUNNY HOPS
x 10
Bunny Hops train the core, improve coordination and activate
the entire body - a prime example of functional strength. This exercise is the
ultimate calorie burner and it is completely machine-free. This short and
concise video tutorial shows you how to do it.
5. LUNGE JUMP
WITH ROTATION x 10
Lunge and jump are fundamental functional movements.
Practice creates masters! There are plenty of opportunities for this because
these exercises can be done anywhere. Our shows and explains step by step how
to strengthen your legs, thighs and glutes, stabilize your core and improve
your balance. During this exercise, several muscle groups are activated at the
same time and more calories are burned as a result.
Are you on vacation by the sea? Use the natural conditions
to make your workout even more effective: Training on sand increases resistance
- and there is nothing better than cool sea air during training. Our goes one step further than this fast anywhere
workout: Shoulder bridges, side lunges, one-legged burpees and plank side jumps
will really make you sweat. You really deserved the jump into the cold water
afterwards. The treadmill cannot keep up with that.
