FIT BOMB Burn Fat, Build Muscle (A bodyweight CrossFit workout perfect for the beginner)

Body Weight Workout: Burn Fat, Build Muscle

So you want to get in shape, but you have no gym membership, or weights.

That’s fine. Luckily, you have you and you can burn fat, build muscle, and get a great workout using just your body weight. And you never have to wait in line.

What's great about body weight exercises is that you incorporate strength, cardio and mobility together.  Think about it.  When you hold a weight chances are you’re tense and tight, so it’s hard to work mobility into the movement. With body weight exercise, one joint can focus on mobilization while the other joints are focusing on strengthening the muscles and we age mobility can become quite the issue.

So work those muscles, one after another to get that heart pumping and keep limber with this workout.

P.S.

Chelsea will introduce you to the concept of EMOM (every minute on the minute)—as in, you’ll perform five pull-ups, 10 push-ups and 15 squats every minute for 30 minutes. If you can finish her, Chelsea translates into 150 pull-ups, 300 push-ups and 450 air squats, an absolutely staggering volume. 

BEGINNERS: BE SMART AND TAKE THE BREAKS OR CUT THIS EMOM DOWN TO A MORE MANAGEABLE NUMBER.  10 or 15 minutes should suffice.
