Ever feel like you're showing up, doing the work… …but your progress is stalled out?
Here’s why that happens, and how to jumpstart that progress in less than 20 minutes.
As you get fitter and your body adapts, the same workouts that used to feel challenging eventually stops sending the signal your body needs to change to keep up.
That’s where a strategy called peripheral heart action training(PHA)comes in.
(Don’t worry, the name sounds more technical than it is.)
Here’s how it works:
You alternate between an upper body exercise and a lower body exercise to keep your heart working and your muscles guessing.
This approach helps:
• Boost circulation and energy
• Create a fresh challenge for your body
• Break through plateaus, without adding stress or time
The bonus is that you don’t need a long workout to see results… 15–20 focused minutes is enough to shake things up and get your progress started again.
Your 6-Move Plateau Buster Circuit
Warm up with easy cardio first, and then do each move for 40 seconds, rest for 20 seconds, and then move on to the next exercise in the circuit. Complete 2-3 rounds. If this is all new, take your time and start with only 1 round.
Adjust as needed based on your energy and fitness level.
Move 1:Wide squat
Move 2:Bent Arm Pullover
Move 3:Glute bridge
Move 4:Pushups(wall, on your knees, above your knees, or regular)
Move 5:Reverse lunges
Move 6:Slow mountain climbers
After all six moves, rest for one minute, and repeat. When done - cool down and stretch.
You can do a workout like this 1-2 times a week to help boost your stamina, metabolism, hormones, and fitness. Create a Christian music playlist to workout to!
Progress doesn’t always come from doing more or working longer! It comes from being consistent, and short, effective workouts like this one make that easier.
May His peace, health, and joy follow you,
