Week 3: Day 6
“Mastery requires patience. The San Antonio Spurs, one of the most successful teams in NBA history, have a quote from social reformer Jacob Riis hanging in their locker room: “When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that last blow that did it—but all that had gone before.”― James Clear, Atomic HabitsTo-Do List & Workouts
-Start the day off with 10 deep breaths
-Create a daily checklist of tasks
-Complete your daily goal to assist with habit building
-Go on a 20-30 minute walk
Full Body Workout
I bet you remember this workout from Week 1. You’ve got this! As you probably remember, I will verbally correct where I, personally, would like to correct my form in the future. Read below for a reminder on:
Modifications
Recommended equipment
Workout Modifications
Planks.
Hold a plank if there’s a move in plank position that is a bit too difficult. When you are fatigued, drop to your knees and come back up when you feel comfortable doing so.
Complete with or without equipment.
All moves can be completed without weights. When doing so, even with chest fly’s, work to activate the working muscle by flexing the muscle we are focusing on.
Don’t feel pressured to complete the entire video.
If you are starting your fitness journey or need to make the workout a bit easier, complete as much of the video as possible and/or remove 1-2 sets of each move and take it as rest. When you’re ready for the cool down, skip ahead to 48:32.
Recommended Equipment
Weights.
One light weight (1-5 pounds), one light to medium weight (3-8 pounds). A wine bottle, water bottle, or object you can comfortably hold in one hand can do the trick!
Yoga mat.
A yoga or floor mat is preferable as well for comfort.
