STRENGTH TRAINING AT HOME - 1

  

Set new goals for the season with the tools to back them up. From resistance bands to kettle bells and mats, you can tackle your toughest challenges with elite training equipment that even the pros love to use. Frida Hallqvist will give us 4 week of workout programs to help us get started after a well deserved time off this summer! Coffee on, hair up, let’s do this.

This is the first workout, the second workout you can find here!

 


LET'S GET STARTED!

Try this workout at home - it doesn't take more than half an hour and can easily be combined with some recovery training afterwards. Do the exercises for 20 repetitions x 4 laps.
