Workout Wednesday 2/19/25

Each Wednesday I am posting a workout you can do at home or during travel. These workouts include movements I have previously shared. Refer back to previous posts for movement specifics.

Today we have a 9-minute EMOM (every minute on the minute). You will perform each movement as many times as possible during each minute.

Move It Move It! EMOM 9:

Shoulder Press

Squat

KB Swing

For example, during minute 1 you will do as many shoulder presses as possible. During minute 2, you will perform as many squats as possible. During minute 3, you will do as many KB swings as possible. On minute 4, you will start again with the shoulder presses.

This is meant to be a quick, fast-paced workout where you rest as little as possible. Choose weights for the shoulder press and KB swings with which you can perform high repetitions.

This would also be a quick workout you could squeeze in at the end of a strength session. If you have time, do a 3X3 or 5X5 of shoulder presses or goblet squats first. You will be working up to heavier weights during the strength session, so be sure to drop back down to lighter weights for higher repetitions during the EMOM.

Regardless of whether you start with a strength component to your workout, always warm up to the weight you will use during the workout performing the movements with light weights and gradually increase the weights.
