Prep Your Turkey Legs

Thanksgiving is this week, so we thought we should work a little harder today and get our legs ready for the big day. This is a tough one, especially if you really push hard during the 50 seconds of work. We may or may not have been yelling out cheesy mantras, over and over and over. Hey, whatever works, right?

**CnD Original Workout**

50 sec work, 10 sec rest. 18 rounds total (18 minute workout)

Super low squat w/ 1 second hold
V-Abs-LEFT
Plank w/ jumps to side of hands
V-Abs-RIGHT
Forward & backward lunge, jump lunge
Commandos with plank jacks

Good luck!

Notes: For the forward & backward lunge, jump lunge, start with your R foot. Lunge forward, then lunge back. Jump up and switch legs, so your left leg is now in back. Now lunge forward and back with your left foot, and jump switch.

Commandos with plank jacks. Start in a plank position. Drop your R elbow to the mat, jump your legs open, drop your left elbow to the mat, jump your legs closed, push up with your R hand, jump your legs open, push up with your L hand, jump your legs closed. Repeat starting with dropping your left elbow.


Turkey Trot HIIT Style

You don’t have to run a race on turkey day to get a good workout in! Lots of trotting in this one and you can get ‘er done in your living room. Do each exercise as hard as you can for 30 seconds and get those knees high!
