Kitsilano workout

I must admit, I'm a bit spoiled by living in Kitsilano. I mean, everything from the Yew Street hill to the sandy beach is a potential workout spot for me! Here is an example of how you can utilize Kitsilano to make you sweat!

As always warm-up before attempting this workout

Plyometrics - 5 rounds of box jumps up the Showboat stage steps.

Circuit 1 - 2 rounds of 15 Bulgarian split squats/leg + 15 body weight squats (optional: jump squats) + 3 sprints up and down the steps. 30-60 second rest between rounds.

Circuit 2 - 2 rounds of walking lunges from one end of the stage to the other (optional: there and back) + 15 tricep dips off the stage + 10 push ups. 30-60 second rest between rounds

Circuit 3 - 2 rounds of 15 inverted rows with a TRX (optional: use the bars) 15 high rows with an exercise band + 30 second plank. 30-60 second rest between rounds.

Be sure to stretch after! My legs are singing today ;)

Look how much fun we're having! This could be you and your friends!
