QB Strength (Full Body Challenge)
Light Weights
•
40m
Let's do it all → mobility, lower body, upper body and core!
Ps. We wanted this to be a quick workout, but got carried away and it's 40 mins (it's worth it.)
Equipment: Looped resistance band, squish ball/block or pillow, one heavy weight for Goblet Back Lunges (I am using 25lbs) and one lighter weight for Cossack Squat with a Chest Press and a Uni-Lateral Pec Fly (I'm using 8lbs.)
Remember weights are a personal choice. A good rule of thumb when deciding how heavy to go is that if you want to work on strength building, you want your weights to be heavy enough to take you to 2-3 reps before failure. You'll know you're there if your movement is slowing down. If you want to work on endurance, alignment and flow, weights could be lighter. Be sure to always mix it up and ask us if you have any questions.
