Check out this Total Body Reboot Workout that will give you back to basics.
If you're looking to get back on track with your workouts after some time off, or you just want to brush up on important form and stay consistent with your training, today's workout is for you!
I'll use props like chairs to make sure you feel balanced so we can stack joints and target muscle groups effectively. We slow down and tune into our bodies.
Even if you've been training for a while, a workout like this will still give you a great workout, but help you get “back to basics” so you can stay safe and protected as you progress.
You can use dumbbells or any weighted object at home for today's exercise, or use a chair for stability if you prefer.
Let’s start rocking out together!

Sumo Squat (1:00)
- Begin standing with your feet wider than hip-distance in front of an elevated surface, letting your feet naturally point outward.

- When you return to standing, drive through your heels and squeeze your glutes.
- Repeat for your maximum number of reps.
High push-ups (0:30-:045)
- Start in a high plank position with your hands on a higher surface, shoulders stacked over wrists, core braced, back flat, and gaze neutral (not up or down).

- Keeping your core braced and your back flat, push yourself back to the starting position.
- Repeat for your maximum number of reps.
- MOD: Lower your knees and place your hands on an elevated surface. When performing push-ups, focus on maintaining a straight line from the top of your head to your knees.
Full Body Stretch Jump Squats (0:30-:045)
- Begin standing with feet hip-distance apart, core braced, chest straight, and a raised surface behind you. Sit back on the surface into a squat and place your hands between your calves.

- MOD 2: As you begin to rise from the squat, push hard into the jump with your heels and land gently with your core supported, distributing your weight evenly on each foot while allowing your hips and knees to bend to Absorb power.

Triceps Kickback(10-15)
- Stand with your core tight, chest tall, shoulders back and down (as if you're leaning against a wall), and hold something heavy in your hands.
- The hips are tilted forward at a 45-degree angle to the body, and the back is flat and engaged between the shoulders so that they do not bend forward. Let the dumbbells hang under your chest and keep your head and neck in a neutral position.
- Pull your elbows up and back next to your ribcage, then kick your arms straight back, rotating your palms toward the ceiling and contracting your triceps to perform a tricep kickback.
- Keep your elbows next to your ribcage as you bend your arms, and repeat the lunge back from the hinged position for maximum reps.
Supported kneeling lunges (10-15 reps per side)
- Begin standing with feet hip-distance apart, core braced, chest straight, and stand in front of the back of a chair or wall for balance.
- Step your right foot across and behind you so that your right knee ends up behind your left heel, forming a reverse kneeling lunge. Keep your chest up and be careful not to lean forward past your knees or let your back knee touch the mat.
- Push through your front heel to stand and return to starting position.
- Switch sides and continue alternating for maximum reps.
2-way curl(10-15)
- Begin sitting or standing with a weight in your hands, palms away from your thighs.
- With your core braced and your shoulders back and down (as if you were leaning against a wall), bend your elbows and curl the dumbbells to shoulder height.
- With control, lower the weight to the starting position.
- Rotate your shoulders so that your palms are facing outward, right and left, and curl the dumbbells to shoulder height.
- Use control to lower the weight to the starting position. Remember to keep your elbows still on your ribcage during the curl.
