My go-to naptime workout circuit
Please enter a valid email address.July 15, 2019Hi friends! Happy Monday! How was the weekend? Ours was a great one. We had lots of time together hanging out as a family, we went to our usual movie night at the pool, met up with friends for gelato, and Tucson had its first *real* summer monsoon. It dropped the temp 30 degrees so here’s hoping there’s more where that came from. It gets super hot here during the summer but I don’t tend to mind the scorching temps.
P is still napping most days of the week, which is an equal blessing and a curse. It’s great because she often needs a little catnap after camp, but it’s unpredictable. Sometimes she stays awake the entire day but sometimes she ends up falling asleep on the couch at 6pm which just throws off the rest of the evening.
I used the days she does nap as an extra 45 minutes to an hour to crush whatever lingering items I have on the to-do list, or even catch a quick workout. I realized last week that I have a go-to circuit when she’s napping and I want to get in a little bit of strength. It gets my heart rate up, but doesn’t involve any jumping. It also works your entire body, and I can usually finish 3 rounds in less than 30 minutes.
I thought I’d share it on the blog today if you’re looking for a quick strength workout you can do during naptime, or even when you just have 30 free minutes and a pair of dumbbells.Holding a pair of dumbbells, keep your chest lifted and your weight in your heels as you squat down and back. Exhale and squeeze your booty to rise, and perform an overhead press at the top. For your lunge setup, make sure your feet are hip distance apart, and think about sinking down instead of forward as you lunge.
