An ENERGIZING total body HIIT outdoor workout
Searching for an energizing, total body outdoor workout? You’ve come to the right place! HIIT (high intensity interval training) is fantastic for people looking to bang out a workout in a short time. Take this workout with you and get started.
This HIIT outdoor workout wakes up your major muscle groups, burns calories, builds strength, improves mobility, balance, coordination, and will make you feel fit and proud of yourself.
It is equipment-free using only your body weight. Head to the park, forest, or beach for some green and blue exercise and reap the restorative benefits.
This total body workout is considered intermediate and targets the hamstrings, quadriceps, glutes, shoulders, chest, arms, and core. Bring water and a mat.
Remember:
Be intentional with each movement. Do not flail around but rather workout with intention: think about the muscles you are working to build that mind-body connection.
Quality over quantity.
Cues:
Brace your abs, keep your shoulders back and down, chest out, chin in. Keep your breathing deep and steady because you need to supply your muscles with oxygen during exercise.
Complete 3-4 rounds and thank yourself later!
