7/23/21 – Walk, Jog
6/16/21-High Steps
This month’s WOW’s will focus on going for a walk! Walking is a great way to obtain steps and can be done anywhere and anytime, without the need for equipment.
Today’s workout is to bring your knees up as your walk. This will activate more muscle groups and make it challenging for you as you walk. Start off with 20 seconds of high knees and build to performing this exercise for 1 minute.
6/9/21-Walk the Stairs
This month’s WOWs will focus on making the most out of your summer! With life slowly going back to normal and the warm summer upon us, now is the time to make memories that will last a lifetime.
This week’s workout will focus on taking the stairs. Stair climbing utilizes multiple muscle groups and is a great way to quickly increase your heart rate. Instead of taking the elevator, take the stairs. You will strengthen your legs while simultaneously toning your body.
6/2/21-10,000 Steps
This month’s WOW’s will focus on going for a walk! Walking is a great way to obtain steps and can be done anywhere and anytime, without the need for equipment.
Aim for 10,000 steps this week. You can break up your exercise routine if you cannot obtain it all in one setting. Weather too hot? Walking the hallways or the stairs in your building is a great option!
