As a personal trainer and fitness fanatic, Vladislava has developed a simple morning workout program that everyone can do. No matter your fitness level, this exercise will get you off on the right foot with a burst of energy and a positive attitude.
To increase flexibility and arouse your muscles, start your routine with light stretching. Pay attention to your torso, as well as your arms, legs, back, and neck. To alleviate muscle tension and improve blood circulation, Vladislava suggests performing dynamic stretches such as spinal twists, arm circles, and leg swings.
To get your blood pumping and your muscles ready for action, try jumping jacks. Try to maintain a constant speed and remember to inhale deeply while you move.
If you want stronger legs and glutes, squats are the way to go. Place your feet shoulder-width apart as you stand. Then, lower your body as if you were sitting back into a chair, and then stand up again. Make sure your knees stay in line with your toes while you perform three sets of ten to fifteen squats, as suggested by Vladislava.
To strengthen your upper body, try doing push-ups. When you are ready, drop yourself into a plank posture until your chest is almost touching the floor, and then raise yourself back up. Doing push-ups while kneeling is an option for beginners. Three sets of five to ten push-ups should be your goal.
