Get fit
with a partner this New Year! PREVISE WELLNESS guest blogger and fitness expert JR Rosania shares
his recommendations today. Resolutions are really, really hard – and sometimes we feel like
we let ourselves down when we fail to stick with our promise. Frankly,
we’ve all been bombarded with New Year notices and “inside secrets.” Some of us
made resolutions to get in better shape; resolutions, which like the holidays,
are already a distant blur. The fact is most New Years resolutions last 30 days
or less – when the routine and discipline starts to wane and it gets harder and
harder to stick with that early conviction. JR
offers a new and fresh way to stay stick with your desire, and it involves a
cheerleader, coach, counselor and best friend… that’s right, your
partner! No weights, no gym, just you and your partner. The only thing you
have to promise is to be your partner’s cheerleader, coach, counselor and best
friend too. Together you keep each other accountable, and encourage each other
to great new fitness levels. JR,
“I’ve outlined four [4] great exercises, which, done with your partner will
firm up your abdominal core, legs, chest and arms, as you workout
together. It’s a fun way to exercise and challenge each other and do it in
the comfort of your home.
Complete
each exercise for 2-3 sets of 12 reps. Try to do the routine 3 times a week.
Have fun with it and stay committed to it, and you and your partner will reap
the fitness benefits together.” 1. ASSISTED
LEG PRESS - One person lies on their back and the other creates
resistance for the leg push by countering the press. The person creating the
resistance also gets a great upper body workout.
2. PLANK
HOLD WITH PARTNER PUSH-UP - One person gets down into a plank position.
The other uses the partner’s back as a platform to do their
push-ups. Great strength conditioning for you both too!
3. ASSISTED
SQUAT - While standing, facing each other, reach out and hold your
partner’s hands. One person is the anchor while the partner performs squats,
keeping his/her back as straight as possible.
4. LEG
THROWDOWN - This is a great core exercise. One person lies on their
back and the partner stands over them. The person on the floor raises their
legs to their partner and holds onto their partners ankles. The partner then
throws the legs downward to the floor, holding slightly above the floor for a
count of 5. Slowly bring legs up to original position and repeat
Happy
partner training and new year! JR. Rosania/CEO Healthplex.

The Morning Warm up RoutineBy J.R.Rosania So, you wake up and have a full day ahead of you. Part of your day includes a cardio or weight workout. You want to start the day off right, warmed up and ready to go at it. One of the best things we can do before we get our day going is to get our body going. The benefits of this routine is to kick start our metabolism and warm up our muscles and joints before we run out of the house. We will burn more calories thru out the day and be ready for the day's activities. The following exercises will do just that. Start with jumping jacks. Perform 3 sets of 30 seconds. Next perform 3 sets of 10-20 reps on the following exercises: pushups...... From knees or from the toes, keep you body position straight and lower your body to the floor to a 90 degree elbow bend and push back to a locked elbow position. crunches.... Lying on your back with knees slightly bent and arms behind head, slowly raise upward while crunching you abdominal muscles. Slower lower to the floor and repeat. full sit ups.....Lying on you back with your knees bent and arms across your chest, raise you entire upper body off the floor toward your knees, slowly lower back down to the floor and repeat movement. Standing squats From a standing position and feet about shoulder with, slowly lower into a sitting position and until your legs come to a 45 degree angle. Reverse movement and raise back up to a standing position and repeat. lunges.... From a standing position, take one step forward and lower body to a 90 degree angle in the forward leg. Push back up from that position to a standing position and alternate legs. These exercises will kick start your body and get you on you way to an energy filled day. |
