Why You Should Ditch the Weights This Fall + FREE WORKOUT
Okay so you're probably like, "WHAT Emily is telling me to stop using weights in our workouts?! But, shes always telling us how important weight training is for my health and body goals."
Hear me out. I am not saying to ditch the weights forever, just once a week.
Here's why. Body weight training. Training with your body weight is awesome because you are using your own weight as resistance & you can do it anytime, anywhere with no equipment!
What I love about body weight training is it is so functional and anyone at any fitness level can do it. Some of my favorite body weight exercises include, push ups, planks, dips, squats, lunges, wall sits and so many more!
An advantage of body weight training is easily being able to get a mix of resistance training and cardio. You can add fat blasting cardio moves in so easily to any body weight workout. For example, lateral jump squats, jump lunges, burpees (DO THEM THEY'RE GOOD FOR YOU) plank jacks etc.
Here is a great body weight workout for you to try at home, at the park or on your lunch break!
