what’s up has fate tribe it’s your personal trainer coach Kozak and I’m Claudia and this is the total body hit workout we’re gonna perform today’s routine Tabata style so that means we’re gonna do four back-to-back rounds of each exercise that’s 20 seconds of work followed by 10 seconds of rest the only equipment required for today’s workout is a pair of dumbbells and the weight that you use is dependent on your fitness level follow along with me for the standard moves and follow me for some easier modifications if you’re ready to go let’s burn it out [Music] alright let’s get started with the warmup first move of the day is going to be a knee raise plus chest opener so opening those arms up feeling that stretch in your chest and in your shoulders and then doing like a march in place while we’re trying to bring that knee up to parallel to the ground and the purpose of today’s warm-up is to elevate your heart rate and increase your overall body temperature and we’ll even get a little bit of mobility work in here at the same time get your body warmed up for what’s to come that’s it now the purpose of the warm-up is not to get your actual workout in so make sure you’re moving at a warm-up pace don’t burn yourself out here whatever your warmup pace looks like go ahead and give it making sure to breathe along the way focus on that breathing nice and consistent feeling a stretch in your chest and in your shoulders every time you open those arms up doing this one for just 10 more seconds and let’s go five four three two one and zero we’re moving to the floor for the next one let’s go ahead and start in a high plank position also known as like a push-up position we’re gonna do a multi-planar lunge let’s take your right foot and move it up by your right hand now we’re gonna reach through to your left side and then reach up to the right go and look at that hand as you twist and rotate from your core this one’s gonna loosen up multiple body parts from your thoracic spine to your hamstrings shoulders all getting loosened up on this one that like this one because it’s just such an inefficient move we’re gonna split our time equally on both sides and again this one is not a race moving through it a nice warm up pace this great mobility move keep that breathing going here and we’re gonna switch sides and five four three two one go and place that right hand back down step that right foot back now let’s step up with your left foot and we’re gonna reverse it reaching through to the right and then twisting up as we look at that hand excellent now is a good time to remind yourself of why you hit that play button today what it is that motivates you what brought you here to this workout we’re gonna keep that in your mind through throughout today’s routine and as today’s routine gets more difficult that’s gonna be that little carrot that gets you through keeping it up four five four three two one and zero all right coming back up to our feet one last warm-up move we’re gonna warm up our posterior chain the posterior swing to overhead feet are a little wider than shoulder-width apart point those toes out slightly bend our knees swing those hands through your legs and then up overhead now we’re starting with a slight bend in our knees we’re going to maintain that slight bend throughout driving our hips back you’ll feel a stretch and your hamstrings your glutes it’s also loosening up your lower back and those three big muscle groups make up your posterior chain loosening them up getting them ready for this action we’re trying to drive our hips back almost like we’re trying to touch our glutes to the wall behind us on this one and then finish up with those arms up overhead biceps by our ears also getting a little shoulder stretching at the same time again really efficient dynamic active stretch let’s do this one for just five four three two one and zero all right for our first move of the day we just need one dumbbell you ready to go I’m ready to go let’s do that if you’re ready as well one dumbbell needed we are gonna do a reverse lunge Plus halo so I’m gonna grab that dumbbell on either side have it out in front of us to start we’re gonna step back with one leg and we’re gonna twist in the opposite side direction drop from both knees to a 90 we’re gonna come up perform a halo bring it up overhead and now we’re going to opposite side drop that back knee down and up right back into halo and you’ll see how each move flows right into the next one that’s right okay again we’re going for back-to-back rounds 20 seconds of work above by 10 seconds of rest I’m ready to get the show on the road let’s do it all right first round here let’s get it going in three two one let’s get it cranking making sure to breathe throughout and your goal in these 20 seconds of work sets is to get as many reps in as possible keeping that pace up now of course we want you to maintain proper form throughout three two one and break well we’re going as fast as we can we don’t want a sacrifice form No all right so these ten-second breaks are gonna go by fast here we go in two one begin and hit it like I said 20 seconds of work goes by slow in that 10 seconds of rest is gonna go by fast so be ready for it just enough time to take a couple deep breaths in your right back into it this move is gonna hit your shoulders core hamstrings glutes quads three two one break excellent compound move definitely alright – now shake it out here we gotta go to one begin as you get a little more familiar with the move you can pick up the pace not about being perfect on this just about putting in the work keeping the pace up longer and if you need to you can always adjust your weight three two one break3 now I wanted to go one more almost there a couple deep breaths boom alright guys here we go three two one the last round taking it up let’s go how many can you get right here throughout today’s workout you’re not competing with

down on my knees we’re gonna do a high plank reverse fly so with that one Dumbo we’re gonna reach through and pull back keeping a bend in that elbow forming a reverse fly keeping your core nice and tight back straight alright here we go and three two one let’s hit it reach through and pull back well we do want to move at a fast pace at the same time we’re trying not to swing too much we want to make sure we’re staying under control make sure you use me appropriate weight that’s it doesn’t take a lot of weight for this move pulling back and keeping that bend in the elbow okay go guys in three two one and break alright we’re switching to the opposite arm now again getting ready position do that 10 seconds is going by fast that’s right in three two one begin keeping our core tight back stays

chin we’re gonna put our weight back in her hips sit back and use that power from our legs to help drive those dumbbells straight up so here we are you ready to go we’re going to and three two one zero sit and push I can get this many in as we can and that a lot of time period it’s driving straight up finishing with those biceps and by your ears use that power from your legs three drive them up

three two one and break ah oh three down one to go that’s gracious take a couple of big deep breaths here and pick those weights back up cuz we’re starting right now let’s do it last one come on pushing yourself cuz nobody else is gonna do it for you come on what are you working on it what’s it gonna take to get there come on every rep getting you that much closer push to the pace three two one and break action oh goodness okay only one dumbbell need it for the next we ready another combo move we’re gonna start with a Dumbo in our right hand we’re gonna step to our left side I’m gonna do a big step and do a lateral lunge and I’m gonna do a lateral squat and as we stand up we’re gonna pull up from that elbow and perform an upright row you decided to under the long step or the short step two rounds on each side and three two one let’s go may be sure to keep your weight back in your hips in both variations you’re pulling up from that elbow like you have a string attached to that elbow pulling up with that elbow and not your hand that’s right and five four three two one break all right one down switch inside a couple of deep breaths here it’s a killer starting in 3 2 1 begin guys this move is tough but you’re tougher after you get the feel for it you can pick up the pace my move requires a little more flexibility and it puts a little more load on that outside leg where Claudia is a little more evenly distributed in five four three two one break all right halfway down to done two to go gyah all right guys starting again in three two one begin all right big reach and big pull straight up from that elbow this one’s working your quadriceps your hamstrings your glutes your shoulders your upper back your traps Oh getting worked on this one come on don’t hold your

and I’m gonna have my knees bent here now we’re gonna press and at the same time perform a flutter kick you decide if you want your knees bent or legs straight or a little bit of both right they’re both fun yes all right three two one zero key on this one is to keep your lower back glued to the ground and that’s why we bring her chin up tuck it in shoulder blades off the ground really helps us keep that lower back flat five more seconds guys come on in three two one and break that’s it ten seconds gonna go by fast it sure is here we go and three two one let’s start again you’re having trouble keeping that lower back on the ground that’s when it’s time to bend the knees nothing wrong with that that’s it better safe than sorry that’s right keep breathing I know it’s a hard one to breathe while you’re moving five four three two one break halfway through down two to go we’re right there with you feeling that same burn and three two one here we go third one keep it moving keep it
