New Workout! Athletic Cardio Step and Power Strength Circuits
Good morning FB Family!
This one snuck up on me! In today’s workout release we use the aerobic step as a tool to challenge our agility, coordination, stamina, power, and athleticism:
The combination of athletic cardio step and power-forward strength exercises in one workout helps improve your ability to take on increasingly demanding workout loads while remaining in control of your breathing rate. Make sure to review the write-up for a few tips on how to safely use your step (or stable, sturdy inclined surface) while moving quickly with the option to hop and jump. We want to challenge ourselves while keeping our joints happy!
I definitely felt my glutes, calves, and quads the day after filming this workout! Feel free to extend the cool-down to target these lower body muscles a bit more than we do during the video. Although I was sore, I didn’t feel “crushed,” and I was quite happy to feel the soreness in my muscles instead of my joints (particularly my knees – my mechanics for step workouts when I was younger were not the best, haha).
Have fun and let us know how the routine goes for you! Maybe a shorter duration athletic step/strength routine is a good idea?
