[ Arms with the resistance bands ]
Our trainer, Chris stole our hearts when he mentioned he had memorized the Victoria’s Secret model’s diet & pre-fashion show workouts. Chris is not about bulk, but rather lengthening and leaning the muscles. Each one of us has experienced weight loss since we began training with him. Side note: apparently San Diego weather is confused- this workout took place just the other day. With the blazing sun, winter was nowhere to be seen.

Quick, Easy Workouts [ Beach Optional ; ) ]
1.) Arms with Resistance Bands: Use a resistance band to make this difficult. Place the band under both feet and pull up to 90 degrees bending in the arms. Take it out of neck and shoulders and only use the arms. Pull the core in. Do 20 reps, 3 sets [60 total ].
2.) Leg-Ups: Lay on the ground, hand behind the head, elbows wide. Extend your right leg, thrust your pelvis in the air as the leg moves up and down. Pull the core in while doing this. Do 40 reps [ 20 on each leg ], 3 sets [ 60 total ].
3.) Arm Dips: Come on to an elevated surface. Extend your legs straight [ bending them is easier ]. Come on to your heels. All pressure is in the palm of the hand. Bend your elbows to ninety degrees as you press up & down. Try 20 reps, 3 sets [ 60 total ].
4.) Frog Jumps: Jump up hill, squatting each time you land. Use your arms to get high in the arm. When you squat make sure it’s deep and try not to stop throughout the entire forty. Do 40 reps, 3 sets [ 60 total ].
5.) Knee In’s: Bend your knees. Pull your knees in the chest and then tap down on the ground. Do 20 reps, 3 set [ 60 total ].
