Move It Monday: Traveling Workout

Why, hello! Bet you didn’t expect to see me here this morning as I sail off into the deep blue. Yet, here I am! Don’t worry, I’m enjoying cruise time fully, but I didn’t want to say good-bye completely while away. I have some good stuff prepped for you this week. Plus, I thought while I travel the Caribbean you all could do a little traveling of your own. In a workout, of course!!!

In today’s Move It Monday workout, you have a circuit of body weight exercises that you complete while moving across around 20 feet of space.

To get started, find a space where you can move around a bit for your travel workout. A yard, a park, a larger room in your home. Pick a Point A and Point B. I suggest around 20 feet of space between the two, but if you don’t have that sort of room feel free to shorten it. You will just need to either complete more circuits or do moves out and back instead of just one way. We good on set-up now?

Moving on to the workout and moves…

You will complete each of the following 10 exercises in circuit format. You will do Exercise 1 from Point A to Point B, then return with Exercise 2. Continue traveling from Point A to Point B alternating through the ten exercises.

1. Walking Lunge 
2. Traveling Push-Ups (moving RIGHT arm out every time)
3. High Knee Bounds
4. Crab Walk 
5. Tube Walking Squats (side walking squats with band – can be done no band just holding squat)
6. Traveling Push-Ups (moving LEFT arm out every time)
7. Butt Kicks 
8. Inchworm 
9. Leapfrogs 
10. Alligator Walk

After finishing a full round of all exercises, rest before going through them again. Complete 2-4 rounds.

There you have it! Get some traveling in today. When you work up a sweat you can pretend it’s from sitting on the beach in the hot sunshine, right?

Ever done a “traveling” type workout? What would be a drill/exercise you would include in yours?
