We’re getting to the end of our little series now folks, we’ve had some fun and we’ve got some great techniques down. Don’t worry too much though, there are a couple more to come. That’s right, the ideas are still coming, ways of keeping fit without having to fork out for specialist equipment or gym membership. What more could you want? Anyhow, let’s go to work!
- Crab Walk. Do you remember our Bear Crawl? Well this is more or less the opposite of that, this is aimed at firming up those buns and adding mobility to your hips and shoulders. This would be especially great for those of us stuck at a desk all day as it provides a range of motion to help ease any repetitive strain you’ve managed to give yourself. I for one will be trying this for that reason alone!
How To
Get that bum on the ground, or alternatively just sit down with your hands underneath your shoulders and your weight held on your palms and your feet. Raise your hips and keep your bum off the ground. Move your right hand and left foot forwards and then vice versa. Move quicker for a better effect and see how far you can go in 60 seconds.
- The Monkey Lunge. A fantastic way of adding some mobility to your inner thighs and your hips. This exercise is a fantastic remedy for strains in these areas and it’ll help you to define the muscles in your shoulders. Also, because of the areas of muscles it uses you should find that the calorie burning potential of this exercise is pretty high!
How To
Step left and lower your body while placing your hands on the floor. This is called a lateral lunge. Keep your feet firmly planted but life your hands and hips a little and shift all your weight to your right foot, this is a right lateral lunge. Reverse and repeat, doing as many as you can over the course of either 30 seconds or 60 if you’re feeling brave!
