November SHRED Day 16!

Again, I apologize... turns out studying for midterms takes up a lot of my time. (who would have thought, right?)

Here's day 16. Enjoy!

**For today's exercise, you'll need a sand bag. I bought mine at Dick's Sporting Goods, but you can find them anywhere online. If you don't have one, find a pillow case and fill it with something that has some weight to it. 

20 Clean and Press
*Make sure to squat all the way down between reps. Also, make sure that you don't stick your chest out when you lift the bag over head.


20 (each leg) Forward Lunge with Rotation
*Make sure your knees make 90 degree angles. This ensures the safety of your knees :)


20 Romanian Dead Lifts
*Make sure you back is nice and straight. Arching your back can cause injury. Also, make sure your elbows brush right next to your side and don't flare out.
**For more of a challenge, do this balancing on one leg at a time!


20 Squats with Side Kick
*Hold your sandbag eight in front close to your chest, or behind you on your shoulders. Squat as far down as you can, then when you push up (forcefully), shift to one leg, kick the other leg up, then repeat and alternate legs. 

Find some stairs, and run up and down them as many times as you can with the sand bag. PUSH YOURSELF. You can do this! Remember, if it doesn't CHALLENGE you, it doesn't CHANGE you. 

After you finish this, repeat this circuit 5 times. YOU CAN DO IT!
Say it to yourself... I CAN DO IT!!
