This Is probably going to burn....

We have been enjoying some sunshine here in the UK and all this extra heat inspired this months fitness challenge!  One of the gifts I received on my birthday was a pack of resistance bands.  Now these have been a handy edition to my workouts, as they don't take up too much space and allow me make my workouts more challenging by adding that extra bit of resistance.  So this month we are combining resistance bands with 5 different burpee combinations.

Burpees?

Yes I said burpees!  Now burpees are one of those classic exercises you will find in any HIIT or bootcamp style session.  Why? well this one exercise works the muscles across the upper and lower body. There are 3 elements; you start of standing, squat down and jump into plank.  Now you guys should know that I like to mix things up a little, so I have added a few new additions at the end of each burpee combination.  Check out the demonstration video and download your copy of the poster by clicking on the image.

100 Burpees a day

I said this at the beginning, this is probably going to burn.  LOL, I make no excuses for this one, as unlike the other challenges we have completed so far this year, they were all based on time. This month, we are aiming for 100reps and however long it takes is however long it takes.  Now you can do this as a stand alone workout or tag it with your other activities you might be doing.

Is this just for the ladies?

No way!  Although the resistance bands tend to be marketed to females wanting to build their glutes, this challenge right here is great from increase overall strength and tone.  Burpees with resistance bands are so much more challenging and also test your balance and coordination.  So tell the men in your life to get in on this!

Any modifications?

Don't worry I have got you.  For those of you who have been working out with me for a while, you should know that I love a standing burpee modification; you literally skip the plank and give me a deep squat and press your arms up as you stand.  Boom!  No excuses, something for everyone making this wrist friendly too! 

I want to see your pictures!!! Yasss!  Tag me on your social media, as I would love to see how you are getting on with this.  If you are up for joining one of my live sessions online where we will be doing this in FULL along with some other gems, please do get in touch via email - info@inspiredbyvu.com

Stories are really interesting, especially when they are genuine ones. If you ask me, it is important that we share the stories that we have. If you are someone who has been to a lot of things, then you may have a story that can inspire another person. Stories are powerful tools, and even in marketing, which is my field, we use stories to connect with our people. I cannot stress enough how important stories are in this life that we have.
