Guided Instructions for the Workout Plan
Warm-Up Start your Tuesday Challenge with a 5-minute warm-up. This can include light jogging in place, arm circles, and leg swings. Warming up prepares your muscles and increases your heart rate, reducing the risk of injury.
Jumping Jacks Kick off the workout with Jumping Jacks. This full-body exercise is excellent for raising your heart rate. Keep your arms fully extended and land softly on your feet. After 45 seconds, rest for 15 seconds. Repeat this cycle three times.
Push-Ups Next, move on to Push-Ups. Maintain a straight line from your head to your heels, engaging your core throughout the exercise. Push yourself up with power and control as you lower back down. Perform 40 seconds of Push-Ups, followed by a 20-second rest, and complete three rounds.
Squats For the next exercise, do Squats. Position your feet shoulder-width apart, keep your chest up, and lower your body as if you're sitting back in a chair. Push through your heels to return to the starting position. Complete 45 seconds of Squats, rest for 15 seconds, and repeat three times.
Plank Transition to the Plank position. Place your forearms on the ground, with your body forming a straight line. Focus on tightening your core to prevent your hips from sagging. Hold this position for 60 seconds, rest for 20 seconds, and complete two sets.
Mountain Climbers Finally, finish strong with Mountain Climbers. Start in a high plank position and quickly alternate bringing your knees toward your chest. Keep your movements fast but controlled. Perform this for 40 seconds, rest for 20 seconds, and complete three rounds.
Cool Down End your workout with a 5-minute cool-down. Stretch all major muscle groups, focusing on deep breathing to bring your heart rate down. This will help reduce muscle soreness and improve flexibility.
