Hump Day Wednesday! Dyna-band it is.

A word to the wise……….

Pick your level of resistance when it comes to the intensity of the dyna-band and always please be mindful to pick your pace depending on your body mechanics.  You are in charge of yourself.  I am here to motivate!  Clue into your perceived exertion rate!

Now, let’s do this!

 

Dyna-band placement:

Intermediate:  Tied band around ankles

Advanced:  Tied band around feet

Low back concerns or beginners:  band placed above knees / mid thigh

With long band under right foot, and tied band placed at desired level (listed above) side step to the left, keeping legs long and strong as you perform a bicep curl.  15 to 20 side steps with bicep curls on each side.

With long band under right foot, perform a diagonal back step as you perform a triceps overhead extension.  8 to 15 reps per side

With long band placed on your back, think bra line, perform a chest press as you do a deep (pee in the woods!) squat. 10 to 20 reps

With tied band around both feet, and long band under forward foot, perform the high knee-diagonal step back as you perform a bicep curl in conjunction with the high knee lift.  The slower the better.

With no bands, step wide in a plie’ position squat, chest lifted and rear driven toward back body, squat (pee in the woods again) as deep as you can for 15 repetitions.

Repeat sequence 3 to 4 times, beginning at the top and working your way down, in order.

In Health and Happiness,
