This 3-day beginner/intermediate upper body and core routine is ideally for those individuals working through a lower body injury. I actually designed this program for myself when my right foot was in a orthopedic boot for a possible stress fracture.
All workouts are interval-based so you'll move through a series of seated or kneeling exercises that target the upper body and core. The idea is to do this 3x a week to help maintain strength levels until you are back at 100%.
Each subsequent workout is a bit more challenging than the previous session. The time under tension is increased by 5-seconds. In Day 2 of the program, a second abdominal exercises is introduced. The routine is designed to move through 3 circuits involving 6-7 exercises in a continuous fashion in order to keep the heart rate elevated.
**NOTE: Do not perform the dumbbell shrug exercise standing, make sure your seated while performing it. Most of the exercises require a dumbbell.
Good luck - and give plenty of time in order to come back fully from your injury.
Stay Strong,
