Core Isometric Workout

http://www.FatBuddhaFitness.com

It's all about isometrics this week and today's workout reflects that. It's also a knee and joint saving workout as it's almost exclusively done on the ground. Some of you may have read yesterday's blog on the FBF website and if so you'll know a bit more about isometric training. The way we do isometrics here on FBF is to mix it up with isotonic (dynamic) training and this workout is no different. That means you'll be holding positions for 10-seconds at a time and then following that with 10 repetitions of the exercise (for all expect the last one where it's 20s rather than 10s). We're working on the ground so it's a great workout for your core, your abs, your back and your chassis, so to speak. It takes a little while to get through a whole set so I suggest doing two or three, but feel free to do many more if you so wish!

Side lunges 10-seconds hold + 10 repetitions (left & right)
Plank 10-sec hold + plank raise (lead left) x 10 reps
Bird dog hold 10-secs + 10 reps (both sides)
Plank 10-sec hold + plank raise (lead right) x 10 reps
Dirty dog 10-sec hold + 10 reps (both sides)
Donkey kick 10-sec hold + 10 reps (both sides)
Side plank 10-sec hold + 10 reps (both sides)
Side leg raise 10-sec hold + 10 reps (both sides)
Hip adduction 10-sec hold + 10-reps (both sides)
Reverse plank 20-sec hold + 20 reps

Enjoy that and check out the website www.FatBuddhaFitness.com tomorrow for another fitness blog and then we'll have the final workout of the week on Friday!
