So it’s the day after Thanksgiving, and if you’re anything like me, you had just a liiitle too much to eat at one of your holiday edition meals. Love those yams, potates, corn pudding, and stuffing, but man does it do a number on your gut! I’ve heard people tell me that they’ve actually gained as much as 4 pounds literally overnight after Thanksgiving.
Well, here’s what you’re going to do. You are going to do this Post-Turkey Day workout “finisher” for some much needed additional calorie burning.
This will be a continuous work circuit, which is one of my favorite ways to train circuits. Get yourself a set of moderate weight dumbells, and a timer and set it for 10 minutes. The idea is to complete 10 reps of each exercise in the following circuit as many times as possible in the ten minute time limit. You should be able to get at least 4-5 rounds in, 8 if you really crank it. This is a great way to finish your regular workout, and give yourself a real metabolic booster shot to burn of some of the fat you gained yesterday.
Here’s the circuit:
- dumbell sqaut to shoulder press
- dumbell deadlift with row
- standing dumbell rotation
Once again, complete 10 reps of each exercise in the circuit as many times as you can for 10 minutes, and work as hard as you can! This 10 minute metabolic “finisher” can take your regular workout into overdrive, and put you on the path to a leaner, more toned physique.
