A 4-Move, No-Equipment Routine to Work Your Upper Body

0

The workout below is for Day 5 of the Good Vibes Workout, a four-week workout plan. It’s pretty great on its own, but you can also check out the full program right here or browse the calendar here. If you’d like to sign up to receive daily emails of these workouts, you can do that here.

When it comes to bodyweight moves, we’re all about variety and creativity. While foundational movements like squats, lunges, and planks are all great for establishing a strong mind-body connection and building the strength needed for more complex exercises (like deadlifts or burpees), we also know they can get, well, a little boring.

That’s why, throughout this program, you’ll get a twist on the classics. In today’s routine, for instance, you’ll do a lunge with rotation. The lunge is unilateral, meaning you’ll work on strengthening the individual sides of your body separately, and is great for establishing balance, plus working your glutes, hips, and legs. The rotation puts additional focus on core engagement and adds a greater stabilization challenge. This exercise also builds on the alternating reverse lunge you did on Day 1. This time, you’ll work each side separately and add a twist—stepping up the intensity a notch.

The incline push-up is another great modification of a classic exercise. Make the move easier by using an incline (like the bottom step of a staircase, bench, or sturdy chair). The higher the incline, the easier the exercise should be. Keep scrolling to get the GIFs and full directions below!

Workout Directions
