Coming off a month of fun, Olympic-inspired workouts, we’re going to keep the momentum going with a 31-day walking and full-body strength training challenge.
This plan is designed to provide a balanced approach to exercise, ensuring that all major muscle groups are engaged with basic strength-training exercises that are great for beginners. It’s a fantastic way to boost your fitness level and overall health while building muscle.
The upper-body workouts will focus on building strength in your arms, shoulders, chest and back, while the lower-body exercises will target your legs, glutes and core. By integrating walking into your routine, you will improve cardiovascular health, increase endurance, and enjoy the benefits of low-impact aerobic exercise.
You can also add the strength workouts to any cardio routine you already have in place, so if you’d rather bike, swim, run or take a HIIT class — go for it!
