Bodyweight Mountain climbers exercise - at Home, Anywhere!





This full-body exercise will raise your heart rate and metabolism and will help you to lose weight fast! 



Mountain climbers are a great full-body bodyweight exercise that require little space and build cardio fitness, abs core strength, leg endurance, agility and balance plus it flattens your stomach, strengthens your deltoids and triceps, shrinks the waist, hardens gluteals and strengthens the back!!!! 



Here's how to perform Mountain Climbers:



• Start in High Plank

• Hands directly underneath your shoulders, shoulder-width apart

• Feet are hip-width apart, toes curled under 

• Legs and Arms are Straight

• Your Abdominals are strongly contracted and ready

• Pull your right knee into your chest by using your abdominal muscles. 

• Do not let your right foot touch the floor 

• Keep Your Shoulders directly over your wrists 

• Extend your right leg back into plank position

• Do not bob your hips, maintain straight line from heels to head

• Do as many reps as you can without feeling pain

• Try and do 2 – 3 sets

• Rest 1 - 3 minutes between exercise

• Stretch the quads, hamstrings + perform hip rotations

• Prioritize Quality over number of reps



Good luck with your exercises and health goals and thanks for watching!
