OK, so I've developed one easy-to execute home exercise circuit that will work for me. There's no reason not to do it, because I can walk out my door and go and it takes only 40 minutes. I should be doing this circuit 3 times a week. Here's what it looks like:
1. warm up hill run: I'm blessed/cursed with living on a nice long hill. It's pretty damn steep too. I start off with running down the hill and back up, it's about .25 of a mile but gets your heart going quick.
2. bear crawl: I bear crawl from the street into my driveway, about 40 yards.
3. jumps. I've got this nice concrete wall. I do ten jump ups on the small ledge (about 18 inches high), ten on the medium ledge (about 24 inches high), and ten on the high ledge (about 30 inches high). I'll measure later.
4. incline push-ups; ten from the second step and ten from the first step of the steps to my front door. Actually, I was so beat today doing this, I just did 20 push ups flat.
5. side planks. Lean on your right elbow; legs out straight with left foot and leg on top of right foot and leg; hold your back/waist straight to there's a straight line from your neck to your waist to your feet. Should feel tension in your spare tire area. Repeat on other side.
6. Bicycle crunches, 25.
7. curls with 15 lbs dumbbell, 15 reps
8. overhead press, 15 lbs dumbbell, 15 reps
9. shoulder flies (?), 15 lbs dumbbell, 15 reps.
Repeat the circuit three times, including the run. Try to move quickly from one exercise to the next.
