<p>It's upper body & core Wednesday! We got this one-block workout that will really keep those glutes tight!</p>
<p>We’re starting off block 1 with a great starting point to any push up variation –– Kneeling Push Ups. It’s really important to keep perfect form is essential in these to make them effective and learn them properly so you can progress. Make sure to keep your arms at 90 degrees and keep your glutes squeezed and pelvis tucked (don’t arch your back!)
</p>
<p>Next up are Step Jacks. Keep this whole exercise active by really pushing up your arms and stepping out your legs. These will get your heart rate up and leave you feeling amazing. If you’re not doing them right it can seem super easy to just step back in forth, but you want to make sure you’re keeping those arms active and really using those glutes to push your legs out. If you’ve been doing step jacks, I want to challenge you to try a few jumping jacks –– remember not to stomp your feet as you come down and take it slowly if you’re having difficulties.</p>
<p>Then we'll do Up Down Dogs! Start in a downward dog position, keeping your hands planted and your feet on the floor if you can –– only go as far as you can without pain. From there, use your keep an active core and think about pushing your shoulders upward and you come forward and look up at the sky.</p>
<p>How does another round of step jacks sound?! Be sure to keep your body super active with these and make them count. Your arms, legs and glutes should be working to get each rep done.</p>
<p>Let's keep going with Simple Side Bends. They are a great stretch that will work your obliques. Reach until you feel that burn while keeping your legs stable and planted.</p>
<p>Wrapping up this whole workout with another round of Step Jacks. Keep this whole exercise active by really pushing up your arms and stepping out your legs. These will get your heart rate up and leave you feeling amazing.
