The 9-9-9 Workout
They say it’s your birthday …
Number 9 … Number 9 …
Beatles fans, get the hints? In case you missed it, we’re celebrating our nine-year birthday this week! (You can see all the special posts here including — yes! — AWESOME giveaways.) And, of course, we’re going to celebrate with you in the best way we know how: a challenging workout. A workout that’s all based on the number — you guessed it — 9.
Here’s the basic idea: 9 moves. 9 reps. 9 rounds. Whether you’re an exercise newbie or been working out like a beast for years, you can do this workout and take it as fast or as slow as you need to (and, of course, modifying as necessary, too — taking high-impact moves to low-impact, push-ups from the knees, walking instead of jumping back for the burpees, etc.). It’s full-body and bodyweight only, so it’s a great one to do at home, when traveling, at the park — wherever!
Be sure to warm up with five minutes or so of marching or jogging in place and cool down with some stretching and more walking once you’re done.
How fast did you do it? And when are you going to do it again to try to beat your time? —Jenn
