My VERY Modified Exercise Routine

So this is it, and it is completely possible- for almost anyone!


1)  run hallway 30 times


2) 20 push-ups off the wall  (Place hands on the wall, feet arms length away from wall. keeping feet still, fall forward, catching body weight with arms and push back to get arms straight again.  It really is a standing push up)


3) 20 jumping jacks


4) 40 butt kicks 

5) 20 step ups [10 on each side]  (literally, find a stair and step up onto it)

6) 20 side step ups [10 on each side] (step onto the stair sideways)

7) 40 second wall sit (you know what this is.  Just slide down the wall like you are sitting in a chair, put your arms out in front of you and count to 40- it's hard.)

Repeat 3-4 times.

In the end, I get 22 min of running and 18 min of other activities.  I might get brave and post a few pictures later today.

This is easy, and a great way to start.  This is only a starting point.  Do this for 2 weeks, then add some time, or even better, go outside and run for the 22 min.

  2. I'm impressed! You can do a 40 second wall sit? I can get to 25 seconds but I'm crying by the end of it. Way to go!
