Sometime back I wrote about changing exercises by adding a little jump. I like to keep changing my exercises. Here are a few more modifications
I do for my squats and lunges
- Squat and front kick
- Squat and side kick
- Squat and circular kick
- Squat and kick back
- Squat and stretch
- Alternate between a squat and lunge (squat change to lunge position back to squat position)
- Reverse Lunge and front kick (with alternate leg,add a jump if you can)
- Walking lunges with weights
Keep Reading I will Keep Writing

I would like to point out I'm no fitness
expert these are things I picked up along the way of my weight loss journey by
surfing the internet and going for fitness classes.Tanvee
I like the split (bulgarian) squat as well as the 45 degree angle lunge.
ReplyDeleteforgot about bulgarian squat those I do them quiet often, 45 degree lunge need to try that...will add them in my next modification, thank you for sharing :)
DeleteI've been doing 1 minute of jump rope between my weight sets. Another thing I like to do is balance in different ways, e.g dumbbell rows while just on one leg or chest presses while on a stability ball vs. a bench. I haven't done that last one in a while; I need to wait until my wrist is a bit more stable. It's a great core plus strength workout though.
ReplyDeleteI feel balance exercises are very good for core..just holding a position is so difficult I try and do one leg burpees and one leg walking push ups and a few more (I don't know the name ;) )
DeleteHi Tanvee
ReplyDeleteSorry, off topic but just wanted to say I like your snaps on the side bar.
Good luck with all your exercise it sounds as if you enjoy it.
All the best Jan
thank you so much Jan :)
DeleteThose are great variations! I have to be careful with jumping because of my back. :(
ReplyDeleteall jumping exercises do impact the back and sometimes even the knee...luckily for me I am all ok so will continue doing these exercises till I can :)
DeleteGreat bunch of variantions... I think, I'll will include them as well... :-)
ReplyDeleteyou should definitely try them..I really found them challenging :)
