June Monthly Fitness Challenge

I hope you enjoyed your challenge for the month of May and went on to inspire others to achieve a more active and healthy lifestyle. Even if you only reached out to one person during the month, you may have had a positive impact on their life! I enjoyed several walks during the month with my daughter, worked out with awesome people in my CrossFit classes, and continued to work with the young boys I train. Even though May has come and gone, I hope you continue to inspire others through your hard work and efforts. Feel free to share this months challenge with them, or invite them or someone else to do it along with you. 

Burpees, Squats, & Push Ups, OH MY! There is a a lot you can do with the June Challenge this month! This months challenge is a great set up for beginners while more advanced exercisers can add reps, turn the workouts into AMRAP's (As Many Rounds & Reps As Possible in "X" time, for example 8:00 min or 15:00 min), or repeat 2-3 times depending on what your schedule allows. 

Each week is different but the reps add up as you progress Monday through Saturday making them a little more challenging as you go through the week. Sunday's are open for 20 minutes of your favorite cardio, a bike ride, roller blading, paddle boarding, what ever activity you enjoy that gets you outside and enjoying the great weather (don't forget your sunscreen, sunglasses, hat and other protective gear).

If you share this workout with a newbie, they can stick with the rep scheme set on Monday's & Tuesday's for the first two weeks and then gradually increase reps as the month goes on, depending on their ability.

Remember to challenge yourself, stay hydrated & have fun! If you turn any of the workouts into AMRAP's, remember do not sacrifice your form in order to get more rounds and reps in. Form always comes first!

If you have any questions about any of the movements, you can leave me a message or seek me out on Facebook at Get Fit With Ris.

In Health & Fitness,

Marissa
