Today is Memorial Day.

I became a naturalized U.S citizen in 2013 on my birthday.

It was my dream and life goal to live and work in California as a fitness trainer.

So on this day, as a US Citizen living abroad in Sweden I honor all the men and women of the United States military who have sacrificed their lives while doing their duty to the United States of America.

Today I remember and honor their selfless service.

I am grateful and thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Now it's time to train and honor our health and bodies:

Welcome to Day 1 of my 4-12-1 Wild Woman Workout with my sister!

This is a 10 min superset workout with resistance bands.

The focus is on lower body!

We are embarking on a 4-12-1 workout routine together for reaching our training goal number 1 for a whole month.

4-12-1 stands for 4 weeks with 12 workout sessions to complete with one goal only: just seize every training day!

I'm done sending you clients on an overwhelming build muscle burn fat program with heavy loading and tons of sets so you feel wow that was a tough session!

Guess why? Most of you end up exhausted, overwhelmed and in pains! You gotta ease into it, for the mind and body.

For beginners, this might be way too tough. I know those bands look innocent!

Do without the bands to get a gentler workout!

For anyone with physical limitations, me included, try it out and adjust as needed.

For my advanced clients with limitless bodies and higher ambitions than just do a 10 minute workout for a total count of 12 in a month: this is how you make it tougher:

-Use a stronger band

-Do all training with appropriate load, squat your 145 lbs for 20 reps instead of 30 seconds in the bottom for instance.

-Triple up the volume so you do this circuit three times in a row.

-Greater Volume of work and more challenging work of the same exercises is what brings stronger muscle gains.

And then, if you still feel it's too easy, download my old school ebook attached to this video:

I would love to see you check in with me in my Seize the Training Day community on Facebook!

Give me feedback on how did this workout feel for YOU so I can come back with a suitable workout for you!
