_Warm-up

Warmup is very important before carrying out any exercise, this will help our blood to circulate well and keep our brain at alert . I did my warm up as requested for 5 minutes. Afterwards my whole body was sensitive to carry on the rest of the programs as shown below.

Dumbbell Front Raises

In this exercise I stood with my feet shoulder -width apart with the dumbbells in my two hands while extending my hands straight forward and down, while on this exercise I felt the stretch in my front shoulder muscles.

Single -Leg Deadlift

Just like the name implies,it an exercise that focuses on the muscle sides such as the lower back because of the bending and the hamstring, I did the exercises with my dumbbells by balancing one of my leg on the ground and lifting the other one straight back , I did same with the other led until I reached the repetition.

This is the easiest program for this week as it targets good posture,it also helps in reducing weight.

Diamond Push-us

I did this exercise as shown by our teacher by placing my hands under my chest then I pushed up. The importance of this exercise is to enhance the stability and coordination of the muscle of the upper body.

Plank Shoulder Taps

This is the program that I like so much because it helps my stomach and my back as I'm someone that sits at a place for long. It engages the core muscles especially at the shoulders.

I did the program by laying like a plank stretching my leg backwards my hands at the front and using my hand to tap my shoulder alternatively.

Cool Down exercise

After all the programs, I cool down with different styles of simple exercises that helped me to ease up myself from all the muscle stretches.

This video below will help you all understand all the programs and my time repetition watch.

The Experiences I Had While Carrying Out These Programs.

While doing the Single -Leg Deadlift, during my repetition my left leg shaking like I wanted to have muscle pull , but I tried my best to calm my nerves and continued till the end. Any program was the shoulder tap which I enjoyed but at the end I felt little pain at my shoulder like someone that did match past.

sweaty face

Ofcourse whenever someone did something that stretches the muscles it's sure that there must be sweat in his /her body, I'm not an exception, my sweaty face can tell that I did the program intensively to achieve the desired goal.
