This week’s challenge will certainly provide you with a smouldering physique, terrific pounding heart health, a sweat of pleasure, and an endorphin rush.

The Fitistan Elbow Plank Challenge will kickstart your exercise regimen and leave you feeling joyous and cheery by the end of the day. Let’s take a look at what this all entails…

Elbow planks are one of the most popular exercises available. When used appropriately, they are an excellent addition to your training programme.

A plank is a basic, effective bodyweight exercise that can be performed practically any place and does not require any equipment.

Fitistan Friday Elbow Plank Challenge

How to Perform Elbow Planks Correctly

Find a position where your torso is straight and you can stretch your arms over the whole length of the mat. Planks with your palms or forearms are both great workouts.

  1. Start in a plank posture, with your forearms and toes on the floor.
  2. Your elbows should be slightly below your shoulders, and your forearms should be pointing forward.
  3. Keep your head relaxed and your gaze fixed on the floor.
  4. Contract your abdominal muscles and bring your navel near to your spine.
  5. Maintain a straight line from your ears to your toes, with no bending or sagging. • The spine should be in this posture to be in a neutral position.
  6. Examine your shoulders to check whether they are dropping toward your ears. Your heels should be higher than the height of your toes. Stay in this posture for a total of 10 seconds.

The High Knees Challenge is this week’s Friday fitness challenge and it’s a fun one.

Don’t be fooled by the movement’s simplicity: high knees can be a high-intensity cardiovascular exercise. High knees get your blood flowing while also activating your core and strengthening your legs. Learning how to do high knees will activate the entire leg, strengthen hip flexors, improve lower-body coordination and flexibility, and increase momentum in your stride.

fitistan

How to Perform High Knees

  1. Begin by standing with your feet hip-distance apart.
  2. Lift your right knee as high as it will go and raise your opposite arm, then quickly switch so your left knee is up before your right foot lands. Continue eccentrically pulling knees up for as long as desired.

Pro advice:

  • High knees aren’t designed to cover a lot of land. It is to fast raise the knees as high as possible. If you’re in your living room, you may just move a few inches or not at all, and that’s OK.
  • Your steps should be light and swift. To gain speed, concentrate on your landings rather than your knees. (Alternatively, return to kindergarten and pretend the ground is molten lava. Many a runner has sped up to avoid being scorched.)
  • Move your arms as though you’re running. Arm motions also assist to increase speed and engage the upper body.

Here’s a slight twist on that. This Diwali, burn the bad fat that is making you unhealthy and let your good physique shine through. Fitistan launches a Diwali Challenge!

This challenge consists of three workouts: jumping jacks, squats, and plank holds.

Fitistan Diwali Challenge!

Jumping Jacks (30 secs) 

  1. Stand up straight, feet together, and hands by your sides.
  2. Jump up, spread your feet, and join your hands above your head.
  3. Repeat the jump and return to the starting position.
  4. Continue until the set is finished.

Jumping jacks are a great full-body exercise that improves aerobic fitness, builds muscle, and promotes relaxation. This exercise also improves muscle endurance and increases the metabolic rate of the body and promotes weight loss. 

Squats (30 secs) 

  1. Place your feet shoulder-width apart.
  2. Bend your knees, push your hips back, and stop when your hip joint is slightly lower than your knees.
  3. Return to the starting position by pressing your heels into the floor.
  4. Continue until the set is finished.

Squats are an excellent exercise for toning the legs and glutes as well as strengthening the knee muscles. You can expect to see improvements in your flexibility and balance if you do this on a regular basis. Squats are also excellent for getting the blood pumping throughout the body, which promotes circulation, eliminates waste, and reduces cellulite.

Plank Hold (60 secs) 

  1. Begin in a push-up position, elbows under shoulders, and feet hip-width apart.
  2. Bend your elbows and place your weight on your forearms and toes, keeping your body straight.
  3. Hold for as long as you can.

Including the plank in your workout routine aids in the development of core strength and flexibility. This exercise tones the abs and slims the waist, and because it engages and strengthens your entire core, it also improves your posture and helps to relieve back pain.

So, are you ready to embark on this daily exercise marathon? We are!

How can I take part in the Fitistan Diwali Challenge?
