The front of your body works tirelessly: the forward-facing muscles in your legs power you when running, while that side of your torso is crucial for maintaining good posture. That’s why this energising workout focuses on pushing movements that target your anterior.
First, jump through the energiser circuit with fast-paced pulse squats and high-knees that work the quads, then keep building those thigh muscles during the strength section. The weighted circuit includes flys to open and strengthen the chest, while front raises target the front of the shoulders for upper body stability. Those hard runs and long desk days won’t feel so gruelling after this.
ENERGISER CIRCUIT: DOUBLE PULSE SUMO SQUAT
- Take your feet wide and let your toes point out at 45 degrees.
- Push your hips back and bend your knees to drop into a squat, maintaining a strong, engaged core as you do.
- Press through the heels to come up halfway, before pulsing back down to the lowest point.
- Push all the way back up to standing and repeat.
