August around the PNW is a vacation month. It's a great time of year to go boating, camping or hiking and many of us are out enjoying the amazing wilderness this region has to offer. Or perhaps you have stolen away to farther shores with the kids out of school and the freedom to explore other countries again. Either way, it's easy to take your fitness program with you. This week Myles has filmed an extremely simple to follow and execute workout circuit that anyone can do and all you need is to pack your superband in your suitcase or backpack. It requires very little space so it's perfect for a hotel room, cramped boat or campsite. You can choose to go through the circuit twice for a quick workout or make it longer by completing 4-6 sets of the exercises. If you are one of "those" people who says, "I don't workout on vacation", that's fine too. We just wanted to offer something to help keep your strength up so when you come back to your fitness regime it doesn't hurt quite as much! But by all means, sit on that lounge chair, drink your margaritas, and relax- we all need a little R&R too. Here are the exercises:
Banded single sided loaded racked squat (6-12 reps)
Banded push up (6-12 reps)
Banded shoulder retraction alternating reverse lunge (6-12 per leg)
Banded bent over alternating rows (8-14 reps)
Watch the 3 min video to see how to correctly execute the exercises and have a great vacation!
