4 Week Full Body Makeover!
Here is a 4 week program I came up with recently and I have had great results doing the advanced version, especially in my legs & bum. I created a beginner and intermediate version as well. This program is meant to be done everyday Monday - Saturday. *Sunday = Rest Day* I typically do my exercises in sets of 10 or 20 so feel free to do the same. Also, if you need to make this more advanced feel free to repeat the workout or if you need to simplify it a bit then go for it! It has taken me about a year to be able to do a full push-up and even still I can only do about 5 at a time - remember to always be mindful of your body and your abilities, don't hurt yourself! The pictures below feature the 4 week program I just finished, you will notice that it is a bit more advanced than these programs and rather than doing push-ups I did chest presses using my hand weights, I simply did much more of those than I would push-ups. Chest presses are a great alternative for those who struggle with push-ups. Whatever you decide to do just be sure to stick with it, don't give up, and I promise you will see results! Enjoy!
