DM me with any questions or concerns and don't forget to share on social.

This is our warm up. You will notice that I utilize, more or less, similar movements to prime the body in every workout. The purpose of this circuit is to get our bodies moving with no weight whatsoever so that we are ready to work.

Start in a standing position. 

Walk your hands out till you are in a high plank position. 

Walk your hands back towards your feet while keeping your legs as straight as possible.

Walkouts

Start by laying on your stomach. 

Arms and Legs extended 

Lift your arms and legs off the ground about an inch (or as much as possible) 

Squeeze glutes, hamstrings, lower, upper, and middle back for 2 seconds. 

Return to start and repeat

Superwoman

On your knees perform a standard push up

Hands below your shoulders and fingers spread 

Make sure the crease of your elbow is facing forward and lower your chest and belly button to the ground at the same time

Kneeling Push Ups

Movement Preparation

This aerobic series elevates our heart rates ever so slightly. I want you working at a steady pace here around a 5 on the intensity scale. This is not meant to exhaust you but rather get your body temperature up and heart pumping.

With two dumbbells at the shoulders. 

Perform a jumping jack while pressing the dumbbells overhead (similar to a shoulder press but much more dynamic)

Weighted Jumping Jacks

Laying on your back 

Start with your arms overhead

Bring them around as you tuck your knees. 

Wrap your arms around your shins 
Return to start

Suitcase Tuck

Lateral High knees

Aerobic/Abdominal Series

This first block focuses on the basics. Push and pull - Push ups and rows. I enjoy pairing a push a pull as I believe it to add balance to the body. I also utilize some core in these progressive weeks so you get accustomed to working in bigger sets.

Keep hips elevated and glutes engaged throughout the movement

Glute Bridge DB Fly

Hinged at the hips with your palms facing up. 

Pull your elbows towards your rib cage to squeeze in your middle back.

Supinated DB row

Laying on your back with your head supported by your hands and shoulders lifted 

Using a band over your toes 

Pull one knee up at a time. 

If the exercise calls for 20 reps that equates to 10 reps per leg.

Banded Psoas March

Block 1

Start with a wide stance. 
Bend forward to rest your forearm on your knee. 
With the other arm grab your dumbbell and pull towards your rib cage to bring the dumbbell as high as possible.

Single Arm Chainsaw Row RIGHT

Single Arm Chainsaw Row LEFT

Kneeling Arnold Press

Start by laying flat on your back. 
Hands at the side of your head with elbows opened. 
Exhale as your rotate to bring your right elbow to your left leg.

AB Straight Leg Bicycles

Block 2

I combine strength and metabolic intensity in this workout. Please make sure that you take your time with burpees. They can be a great tool when utilized correctly. If you need to modify the burpees, make sure you do so by walking them out instead of jumping out into a plank.

Start in high plank position and hop both feet up towards your hands in a wide stance. 

Lift your hands off the mat and raise your chest but keep your butt down and knees bent. 

Repeat by lowering hands to the mat and hoping your legs back out into a high plank position.

Burpee to Half Stance

Hands underneath your glutes with palms down.  

Shoulders lifted and chin tucked 

Switch between the two movements every 5 seconds.

AB Flutter + Scissors

Start in a high plank position

Hand directly below your shoulders

Pull your elbow towards your ribcage 

Extend arm and flex in your tricep

Return arm to the starting position

Plank Row and Tricep Kickback

Strength and Cardio Finisher

Hi Danny! First of I wanted to say I’m obsessed with your workouts! I’m writing because lately I’ve been missing a lot of them because over a month ago I had wrist surgery and have been in recovery ever since. I’ve slowly tried to get back on track and start incorporating weights into my workouts. Do you have any suggestions as to how I should start again? 
Thank you so much 
Also, happy new year

This was great! A couple of questions. Where should I feel the side plank hip dip? And how do I measure a 6-7 cardio intensity?
