CORONAVIRUS WORKOUT

CORONAVIRUS WORKOUT


For many, this is the time of lockdown because of covid-19. This virus has put us home but has not put our motivation away.
However, our workout can be severely impacted by isolation.

1. The choice of dumbbell / barbell / Kettlebell is up to you.
2. Workout I, II and III to be repeated every week.
3. Rest one day after each workout. E.g. one possible routine is to workout on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The other days being resting days.
4. Add 1 or 2 'short' abs circuit in your rest days or at the end of the workouts.
