A
Free Workout! The Card Deck ...
 This
one is a classic and a great way to get a fast workout that
changes things up a little. The way I learned it, you get a deck
of cards and alternate between push ups and sit ups. Numbered
cards are obvious, face cards and aces can be what you want.
I have a set of cards
from a trainer by the name of Matt Furey that has 4 different
exercises on them and it gives a good full-body workout. Along
those lines, instead of just doing push ups and sit ups, add in a
body weight squat and bridges. So, just rotate through those 4
exercises (push up, sit up, squat, bridge) doing one exercise per
card until you get through the whole deck.
I recommend doing 10
repetitions for Jacks, 15 reps for Kings and Queens and 20 reps
for aces. Oh, don’t forget Jokers…those are 50. If 50 reps of
any exercise is too much, split the reps up between all the
exercises (13 push ups, 13 sit ups, 12 squats, 12 bridges).
If the whole deck is
too much (or you are really short on time) you can do 1/2 of the
deck. Time yourself so you can gauge progress. If your rest time
between cards is minimal to none, you will get a good cardio
workout at the same time.
If these exercises get
old, substitute new ones (kettlebells,
pull ups, use your imagination) as long as they are well rounded
(upper body, lower body and abs/core). Have fun.
