Join us for Fit Week Fitness Friday! Look no further than a standard deck of cards.
This workout will start with a fully shuffled deck of cards (52 cards). All face cards (Jack, Queen, and King) have a value of 10. Aces have a value of 1. For each suite there is a designated, energizing, calisthenics exercise. (See below)
The number cards will be face value (ex. 7 of spades = 7 squats). Jokers are free cards, meaning the exercise is whatever you chose. Some great ideas for the joker include yet are not limited to: running a lap, climbing the stairs, etc. At boot camp this week, the jokers valued in as 5 burpees! Remember to be creative and have fun!
The object of this workout is to work through the entire deck of cards and within a challenging time frame. Good luck!
Hearts = Push-Ups
Clubs = Mountain Climbers (*Modification - low plank hold)
Diamonds = Up/Downs (Jump up, reaching for the sky, land and reach for your ankles or the floor, bending the knees and keeping the weight in your heels.)
Spades = Squats (*Higher intensity - Squat thrust)
