Glad you liked this Monica!

Please understand this is a challenging workout – and yes it is fine to modify.

Just goes to show the importance of following a full body, progressively challenging resistance training workout plan TO develop strength – which leads to even better results

Haphazardly following a new workout each day or week as I covered in the post:

Hey Daniella,
The break between exercises is “little to no”
The break between sets is 1-2 minutes depending on your fitness level.

If you have Fit Yummy Mummy then you have plenty of workouts to rotate between.

I would not suggest doing just one workout for 3 weeks. If you have FYM you know this.

hello Holly and Scott,
thanks for this, it is pretty challenging. 2 questions though:
1) what is the break between the excercises (if any), and what is the break between the sets?
2) FYM book recommends to alternate 2 workouts for a period of 3-4 weeks. If this is one workout, what would the other one be? or can this workout be done alone for 3-4 weeks?
thanks in advance for your reply
Daniella

Hi Ladies. Glad you like the workout. I had to find something that would challenge Holly.

Another modification, Peggy, for the squat thrusts (and this is assuming the painful part is the deep squat all the way down when your hands are on the ground), instead of putting your hands on the ground, put your hands on a step (if you have access as one). This will make it such that you don’t have to bend your knees as much.

The higher the step, the less you will have to bend your knees, and since the movement is pretty challenging anyway, this is also a good modification of the movement for beginners.

Hope that helps.

Wow Holly and Scott! What an amazing set of exercises – I’d never heard of or seen Lizard Crawl Pushups before! And Holly you made all of the exercises look so easy!! I’m sure if YOU were out of breath, I would probably DIE. I think I’ll wait until I’ve reached the end of my 16 week program so I can maybe start to do some of these. Thanks heaps – something to work towards.
