After the Workout!

Gobble Tov Workout

Build the Muscle then Feed the Beast!

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Hanukkah to all my friends! This is me after I just got done with my Thanksgiving day 20 minute workout blast so I could be prepped for the silly cheat day I’m about to encounter.

The workout has two components. One is a kick butt declining pyramid cardio cranking workout, the other is an up and down pyramid to build muscle. Between the two, you’ll have your metabolism cranked up to the max!

CARDIO

Pyramid Cardio routine is simple.

1. Kettlebell swings
2. Goblet Squats.

You don’t put down the kettlebell. Start with 10 reps of kettle bell swings, then straight to the squats (using the kettle bell). Start at 10, decline to 1.

MUSCLE

Also easy, this routine utilizes a concept called stacking. You’ll blast your muscles properly so that they’ll need all those carbs to replenish!

Exercises

1. Dumbbell Curls I did two types (supinated (up), hammer (down)) you can just do one type.
2. Shoulders. Dumbbell shoulder press (up) and lateral raises (down). Pick one you’d like.
3. Dumbbell rows.
4. Stability Ball decline pushups, bring your knees in after each rep.

Description: Feet up on the stability ball, do a pushup. When you come up, draw your knees into your chest, and push back out. That’s one rep.

Routine

Start with one rep, do each exercise in the set, rest 15 seconds at the end of the round.

Go up to six reps, then start back down.

That’s it! You’re done. 20 minutes or less and you’ve blasted your body and you’re ready to enjoy your time with the family.

I hope everyone has a great, safe and Happy Thanksgiving!
