Prairie Fit Custom Workout
Use the videos from our library to create a custom workout that’s either low impact or high impact or a mix of both.
Whether you want to create a cardio only, lower body, upper body, core, or a mixture, we’ve got you covered.
REMEMBER: keep knees soft, pull your tummy in towards your spine, put your shoulder blades in your back pockets and breathe.
Here is how to set up your own:
- Choose 6-8 exercises from the library below.
- For focusing on legs-only use – lower body exercises
- For cardio-only – use cardio exercises
- For upper body-only use – upper body exercises
- For core-only use – core exercises
- For well-rounded, use – 2 exercises from each category
- Find an open space in your house or outside (8’X8′ roughly,) grab your weights or weighted object (in the videos we used 2 water bottles as examples), grab a timer, and water.
- Perform each exercise for 1 minute then rest for 30 seconds in between until you complete all the exercises in your workout
- Rest 3 minutes
- Then, start the workout over again
- Rest 3 minutes
- Finally, complete workout one last time for a total of 3 rounds
Basically, you should work out for around 30 minutes minimum including rest times.
Don’t forget to cool down and stretch after each workout is completed
