You’re now at the halfway point of Svava Sigbertsdottir’s 30-day fat-burning home workout challenge! Day 16 is all about bodyweight exercises, so no equipment is needed. Let’s dive in!
Today’s moves are sumo squats, high planks transitioning to downward dog, and side planks. These exercises come with a twist to pack an extra punch and really make you sweat. Focus on controlling each movement to feel the burn in your core and to build both strength and stamina. If it were easy, your core wouldn’t work as hard, and you wouldn’t see those great results, as Svava mentions. It has to be challenging to tone up your body.
When you start to feel tired, resist the urge to hunch forward to catch your breath, as it restricts your breathing. Instead, remember to open your chest and breathe deeply. You’ve got this, so keep it going!
Here’s the plan: 10 minutes, five moves, two sets. Do each move for 40 seconds, then rest for 20 seconds, and repeat the whole routine once more.
Keep pushing and stay strong!
