For this workout you will need a set of stairs – I usually tend to go to a set of bleachers near where we live, but the stairs in your house will also work just as well! You will also need a mini band and a weight of some sort – a dumbbell or kettlebell. I also strap up with a weighted vest for an extra challenge but that’s absolutely not necessary, especially if you’re a beginner! And fair warning, if you are a beginner you may find this workout a little difficult so feel free to modify the movements or reduce the amount of rounds!
Each round consists of 2-3 different exercises, I usually complete each round between 6-10 times, taking as little rest as possible.
Round #1
- banded jump squats – mini band placed just above your knees
- walking lunges to top
- banded duck walks – mini band placed just above your knees
Round #2
- sprint to top
- banded goblet squats – band just above knees, hold weight at chest
- crab walks – band above knees to make it easier, band at ankles to make it harder!
Round #3
- bulgarian jumping lunges – eliminate the jump to make it easier
- tuck jumps to top – or as many as you can, these are tough!
Round #4
- banded skater jumps – jump up each step with every jump
- seated hip abductions – band above your knees
- banded hip thrusts – band above your knees
