Powerful Workouts
One of my favorite ways to workout, is to do a HIIT routine.
HIIT can be a full body workout that burns TONS of calories while building strength in a short period of time. I have outlined the who, what, where, when, why and how of HIIT in my post Get Fit With HIIT: The Easiest Way To Lose Weight in 2020.
Take a look at the post above, to see if HIIT is way of training you want to get into. I have also detailed how to teach HIIT to you PE classes. So any PE or even classroom teachers out there, take a look at my HIIT for Kids post to see how to make powerful exercise fun!
Some of my other favorite ways to build strength is yoga. I talk a lot about yoga in this blog, because of the benefits I get from them. Whether I’m doing it to help my low back pain, stretch my sore muscles, or just to help me relax…it always works.
Here you can find so many benefits of yoga, and why you should try it!
Easy Stuff
Just because yoga and HIIT are my two personal favorites, doesn’t mean that’s the only way.
I also enjoy going for walks with my dog, or trying to recreate TikTok dances. Both are extremely easy, and get your heart rate up a bit depending on the intensity you’re working at.
