    SF30 Day 29 — Jump Rope Workout (10 or 20 minutes)

    September 29, 2020

    Today’s jump rope workouts are a great way to combat the boredom that sometimes accompanies repetitive cardio exercise. And it might just take you back to those carefree childhood days of summer.  Jumping rope has a lot of health benefits.  It elevates your heart rate to torch calories, improves coordination and balance, is easy to do, and is just plain fun.   On the flip side, continuous jumping can take its toll on your ankles, calves, and knees.  Be careful and ease into it, especially as a beginner or if you have existing injuries.  Here’s an introductory tutorial to get started.  I recommend starting with no more than 10 minutes if…

    SF30 Day 24 — Core Challenge

    September 24, 2020

    So far this week, we’ve featured a push-up challenge, a squat challenge, and a burpee challenge.  Today, we’re doing a 500-repetition core challenge with Maddie Lymburner from MadFit.  The last three days of challenges have worked the core as a secondary part of the exercise, but this routine targets all parts of the abdominal wall.  Some ask whether it’s okay to work your core every day.  The answer is nuanced, according to Livestrong.com: More isn’t always better. Generally speaking, … most people shouldn’t do ab workouts more than six times a week. Not only do your abs need a break, but so does the rest of your body. Without at…

    SF30 Day 23— Burpee Challenge (16 minutes)

    September 23, 2020

    It’s the exercise challenge everyone loves to hate … BURPEES!!!!  Burpees are brutal, which means they’re good for you provided you do them right.  Not only are burpees a total body strength exercise (working shoulders, chest, abs, quads, inner thighs, butt, and triceps), they’re also cardio.  I love the efficiency of burpees.  If I want to get in a quick workout and maximize my time, burpees are definitely in my routine.  But like our push-up challenge and squat challenge, it’s important to do them right and easy to do them wrong.  If done poorly, burpees can stress your lower back and shoulders.  To help you,
