The 7 Day ELITE Daily Exercise Routine- Wednesday Day 3
Due to popular request, many people
have been asking for a daily exercise routine. Our routine goes as
follows:
Monday: Lower Body
Tuesday: Upper Body
Wednesday: Core and Cardio
Thursday: Lower Body
Friday: Upper Body
Saturday: Core and Cardio
Sunday: Active Rest
I hope you're as excited as I am about
today's daily exercise routine.
Wednesday: Core and Cardio
Set your timer for 10 minutes. Jump
back and forth 50 times and then do 50 jumping jacks. That counts as
one set. Do as many sets as possible within 10 minutes. It helps to
have a line on your floor that you can jump over and back to help you
get even jump lengths.
After those 10 minutes are up, now it's
time for your core workout. Set your tabata timer for three rounds of
50 seconds work and 10 seconds rest. You're going to do one exercise
today, Mountain climbers,
three times.
You should be in a pool of sweat by the
time you're through. Not bad for it only being 13 minutes long. Now
get out there and enjoy the rest of your day. You can also come back
in the evening to do this exercise again as there's no limit to how
many times you can do this routine.

The 7 Day ELITE Daily Exercise Routine- Tuesday Day 2
Day 2 – Tuesday's daily exercise routine
Due to popular request, many people
have been asking for a daily exercise routine. Our routine goes as
follows:
Monday: Lower Body
Tuesday: Upper Body
Wednesday: Core and Cardio
Thursday: Lower Body
Friday: Upper Body
Saturday: Core and Cardio
Sunday: Active Rest
In today's daily exercise routine we
will be working upper body. We are using the Tabata system, so be
sure to have your timer ready for action.
The way our Tabata system works is that
you set your timer for 50 seconds work and 10 seconds rest. You do as
many reps as possible within those 50 seconds before switching to
another exercise. Each exercise is considered 1 round. Today we'll be
working with 12 rounds, which means it will take 12 minutes to
complete four different exercises, three times through.
Tuesday - Upper Body
Push Ups
Dumbbell Chest Press
Dumbbell Bent Over Row
Dumbbell Triceps Extension
Remember to record your reps, so that
you can use it next week to beat your personal best. In the beginning
use a light weight, so you can gauge how much weight you should use
for next week based on how you feel the next day.

How to Do Side Lunges (Video)
This is very similar to the
front lunge, but obviously we're going to be going sideways with
these ones. Make sure you keep your core nice and tight during the
whole range of motion, because you don't want to be flailing around
with your arms. Check out the side lunges video below for the correct
form.

How to Do Calf Raises (Video)
If you're involved in athletics in any way, you absolutely have to have strong calves. They're instrumental for running and jumping, which pretty much every sport involves (except golf, if that even counts). If you find yourself wobbling, just hold onto something to steady yourself. This isn't a balance exercise, and you want to be sure you put as much attention as possible into the actual calf raises.
