Hello fitness enthusiast! It's another day to highlight in words, pictures and videos about my yesterday fitness routine with stayfit fitness club of which @ngoenyi still remains our able coach. Apologies for the delay in updating, but yesterday's workout left me feeling sore. Despite the challenge, I'm excited to share my fitness routine with you today. In this post, I'll break down:
- Exercises we did
- Execution methods
- Physical benefits of each exercise
And the best part? From now on, I'll be including videos of each exercise to help you visualize and replicate the steps. Get ready to sweat and learn. Let's dive into my fitness routine.
A brand new day, a brand new smile. Waking up healthy and strong, thanks to my consistent exercise routine, always fills me with joy. Post-morning worship, I connected with @emishael60, who was already at @kidi40's place. We coordinated our meetup and headed to the training ground together, eager to kickstart our fitness session. We hopped in a taxi and arrived at the training ground, ready to tackle the day's workout without delay.
Lateral Shuffles With Cone Taps
Lateral shuffles with cone taps was the first exercise we did. To execute this exercise properly, below are the following steps to follow:
- Place 2 cones, spaced 2 - 3 meter apart.
- Stand at one edge, facing front.
- Start running sideward at a normal pace using your toe.
- As you approach the right cone, use a sitting/squatting method to touch the cone using your fingers.
- Immediately return to the starting position, touching the cone on the left, using the same sitting/squatting posture.
We completed 4 sets of lateral shuffles cone taps, totaling 80 cone lateral touches. We took 1-minute breaks for rehydration and recovery between sets. Below are some physical benefits of this exercise:
- It enhances quickness and acceleration.
- It develops rapid changes of direction.
- It improves response to visual cues.
- It enhances overall athleticism.
- It develops stability and control.
Dumbbells, Tyre And Weight Lifting
Dumbbells, tyre and weigh lifting was the second exercise we did. To execute this exercise properly, below are the following steps to follow:
- Stand erect with feet shoulder-width apart.
- Hold dumbbells/weight with palms facing forward.
- Bend knees slightly and hinge at hips.
- Grip dumbbells/weight firmly.
- Lift dumbbells/weight to chest level.
- Push dumbbells/weight upward, extending arms fully.
- Reach full extension above head level.
- Slowly lower dumbbells/weight to chest level.
- Control the weight as you lower it.
- Return to starting position.
To feel the impact of the exercise, we completed 2 sets of Dumbbell/Weight Lifting with 20 repetitions each. Took 1-minute breaks between sets for recovery. Below are some of the physical benefits of this exercise:
- It builds shoulder strength and stability
- It develops trapezius and deltoid muscles
- It enhances tricep and bicep definition
- It improves core strength and stability
- It boosts overall upper body strength
Jump Squats Cone Taps
Jump squats cone taps was the third exercise we did. To execute this exercise properly, below are the following steps to follow:
- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, facing cone.
- Assume athletic stance, knees slightly bent.
- Lower body into squat position, keeping back straight.
- Explode upward, jumping from squat position.
- Land softly, immediately repeating squat.
- Touch the cone in front of you using your fingers.
We completed 4 sets of jump squats cone taps with 20 repetitions each. Took 1-minute breaks between sets for recovery. Below are some of the physical benefits of this exercise:
- It improves cardiovascular endurance
- It increases heart rate and blood flow
- It enhances aerobic capacity
- It builds stronger quadriceps
- It builds calf strength
Completed yesterday's fitness routine with three intensive full-body exercises. Finished strong and transitioned into a relaxing stretching session to unwind and recover. Took deep breaths, inhaling and exhaling slowly, holding each stretch for several seconds.
My Overall Feelings/Pains
Yesterday's full-body workout left me feeling sore in my arms, shoulders, lower body, and calves. But I won't let temporary discomfort hold me back. Instead, I draw motivation from the familiar mantra: "NO PAIN, NO GAIN". Embracing the soreness as a sign of progress, I press on, fueled by determination and resilience. Every repetitions, every set, and every sweat drop brings me closer to my fitness goals.
I'll be excited to share my next fitness update. Stay tuned for inspiration, tips, and motivation.💪🏾🏋🏽♂️.
