16 Jan Home Workout of the Week (Jan 17, 2020)
Welcome to Your Home Workout of the Week!
This 10-minute workout uses The P.A.U.L. Method, designed specifically for busy professionals to maximize results in minimal time.
Here’s how it works:
Each P.A.U.L. workout includes one exercise from the following 4 categories:
P: Plyometrics –> Gets your heart rate up to burn fat.
A: Abs –> Builds strong core and tight waist.
U: Upper Body –> Strengthens and tones arms & torso.
L: Lower Body –> Strengthens and tones glutes and legs.
How it’s Done:
Step 1: Perform each exercise for 30 seconds.
Step 2: After completing all 4 exercises, rest 30 seconds and repeat.
Step 3: Stop once you’ve reached 10 minutes (4 sets). Take a quick peak in the mirror — you just nailed your workout for the day.
Here are the 4 exercises you’ll be performing this week:
EXERCISE #1: Squat Jumps (Plyometric Cardio)
This is a fantastic exercise to strengthen / tone your legs, while also elevating your heart rate to burn fat.
Before we dive into the instructions, you should modify this exercise if you fall into one of the following two categories…

EXERCISE #2: Bicycle Crunch (Abs)
If you had to use only ONE exercise to make your stomach look like amazing, the bicycle crunch would be a solid choice.
Here’s why:

EXERCISE #3: Resistance Band Row (Upper Body)
This exercise is essential to balance any pushing movements you’re doing with push-ups, bench press, etc.
This exercise is also very important for anyone who sits most of their day. Sitting leads to a weak upper back and hunched shoulders. So we’re using the resistance band row to strengthen the upper back and pull the shoulder blades back and down.
In short, the resistance band row is designed to get your body standing up straight and tall.

EXERCISE #4: Reverse Lunges (Lower Body)
The reverse lunge is an exercise that I almost *never* see performed properly.
But, learning why everything you may have been taught is wrong is key to working on your lower body mechanics and/or pain in the hip, knee, or ankle.
