Personal Trainer and Fitness Instructor, Keith Kohanek shares the workout he did in Stretch Room Pod 24! Keith made use of the Elliptical, the Bench, and the Yoga wall, with dumbbells and TRX straps from the Community Props area. 

KEITH’S FULL BODY WORKOUT

WARMUP

Fast-pace on the Elliptical for 5 minutes. 

 

CIRCUIT 1

x3 rounds. 60 seconds rest between rounds.

Eccentric Pull-ups x10

Trainer Tip: “You want to take more time lowering yourself than you do pulling yourself up. Take 2 counts to pull up, and 5 counts to extend to the base. Keep your shoulders down and back for the whole movement.”

Dumbbell Single-Arm Row x15 each side

 

Balancing Curls x10 each side

Trainer Tip: “To help keep your balance, find a spot to focus on. Maintain an engaged core and impeccable posture through this – imagine there’s a string at the top of your head pulling you towards the ceiling and keep your shoulders down and back.”

Shoulder Tap Downdogs x6


CIRCUIT 2

x3 rounds. 60 seconds rest between rounds. 

TRX Rows x12

Trainer Tip: “You control the resistance (weight) based on where you place your feet – walk your feet closer to the wall to increase weight, and further away to decrease the resistance.”

 

TRX T-Rows x12

 

TRX Curls x12

TRX Jump Squats x12

Trainer Tip: “I love squats on the TRX! The extra assist from the handles and wall make it possible for folks to get into a deep squat while keeping the heels down and the weight spread evenly across the foot. Jump high and land as softly as you can.”

 

And presto! 

Your Pod Workout is done. Spray down everything you touched using the hospital-grade disinfectants provided in your Sanitation Station, return and spray down any props you used, wash your hands, and you are done!
