Who said playgrounds were just for kids?

I always like to try and mix things up for my clients. I have an awesome client named Tycee that is super tough, and always do willing to be my guinea pig. In the spirit of mixing things up, I took Tycee to a local park to give her a tough outdoor workout. It was so much fun, and she absolutely ROCKED it. I always hate people's excuse that they don't exercise because they don't have access to a gym. You can work out anywhere! Our workout included...

Box jumps
Pull ups
Hanging crunches (knees over the bar)
Shuttle runs (picking 2 points and sprinting between them)
Pushups with feet up on bench
Rows with the bar
Mountain climbers with feet up on bench
Monkey bars (have you tried them lately? Not as easy as you think)
Air squats
Crazy planks
Burpees

It was such a fun and tough workout, and all of it was done without a single dumbbell or machine. Proof that playgrounds are not just for kiddies!!
