Chisel Balance Workout

Looking for a workout that combines weights with agility/balance and cardio? Well, I'm going to share some of the workouts from The Masters Hammer& Chisel program.

The equipment you will need for this workout will be either a bench or stability ball (if you don't have either you can use a chair for this workout) and weights or something equivalent to a weight (milk jugs/canned goods) 





If there is a move you are not sure about then you can search YouTube for it or Google is a great source for all things workout.

This workout takes less than a half hour and you do not need a ton of space to do it. Here is the link if you want to print it out.

It is called balance for a reason. Make sure to engage your core and focus on balance as opposed to the weight you are using. It doesn't have to be heavy. If you do not have good balance, that is totally OK. Just do your best. 

This is the very first workout in the Master's Hammer & Chisel program.

Hammer Plyo workout

Are you one who likes Plyo or cardio workouts? Well, here is one for you. It's a quick workout to get the heart rate up.






Here is the link if you want to print this off. This is day 2 of the Hammer & Chisel program.

The leg in & out move is done with a bench. Put your hands at the end of the bench and then jump your feet up to the bench and back down. For 30 seconds.


For the Crazy horse move, it is similar to the leg in & out but you put your feet together and instead of jumping onto the bench you jump from side to side, keeping your feet together.

If you do not have a chin up bar for the pull ups, a resistance band hooked to your door works as an alternative.

You can do this workout as a bodyweight workout but I recommend using weights where you can.
