Lynsey Suzanne, Founder of Lynsey Suzanne Fitness and Co-Founder of Fitness in Fifteen has provided 10 exercises you should include as part of your fitness routine.
A huge advocate for resistance based training – Lynsey recommends all women to include weight/resistance based training in their fitness routine at least 3 times a week. Starting off with as little as 15 minutes – 30 minutes.All you need to get started is a Kettlebell, Dumbbells and/or a resistance band.
You want to ensure you are training the body in a balanced way. Working on creating a strong core. As women age, they become prone to diseases such as osteoporosis. Also, changes in our hormone levels means our weight can fluctuate. This leads to weight gain.
By including resistance based training regularly you can not only increase your bone density but also improve your overall well being and state of mind.
Here are 10 exercises designed to target your overall body, all low impact and require minimum equipment and space.
Romanian deadlift – posterior chain
Plank – core
Chest press – chest and triceps
KB swings – posterior chain
Goblet squat – legs and core
Lunges – legs and core
Bent over row – back
Dorsal raises – posterior chain
Dead bugs – core
