Bodyweight Summer Intensive Conditioning

Take this circuit anywhere as it’s body weight only, or you can add light weights to increase the difficulty!

Work It Wednesday will feature a new workout for you every week, especially beneficial for our dancers!

A little peak at one of our summer intensive conditioning workouts at BSDA in Tampa & Brandon Florida. These girls were tough but we definitely tired them out before filming. They hold a light 5 lb weight for the RDLs but its a challenge with just body weight as well. We did 30 secs of work with 15 seconds of rest, 5 rounds.

Side Plank Leg Lift: Fry those hips, but focus on shoulders one atop the other, same for hips, no rotating. Keep hips high and don’t lift leg too high.

Wide Squat Jumps: Focus on knee control & using your hip hinge. Knees don’t tilt inward & butt goes back before each jump

Alt V-Up Taps: Start in hollow hold with lower back flat on the ground (refer to Fix It Friday Ab Brace) & alternate reaching up to tap opposite leg, then lower. Again focus on the core, not how high you get.

3 Point SL RDL: When doing your RDLs reach first to the outside of your leg, then toward toes, then toward inside to allow some hip rotation & increased challenge.

Work It Wednesday will feature a new workout for you weekly to try! Tested with our dancers & by us!

Play Video

Group 1:

If you have access to equipment such as free weights, any cardio equipment (rower, stairs, treadmill, bike, etc.), and other things common in a fitness center, “Group 1” is for you!

  • You could also run rather than use cardio equipment
  • Options to include steps, med balls, etc. included, but these are optional

Group 2:

If you’re primarily doing this at home, with resistance bands (though a few small weights can easily be added if you have them), but still can use stairs, bike, run, or have some cardio equipment access, select “Group 2”

Group 3:

Lastly, If you don’t like to run, and don’t have access to any cardio (no stairs, bikes, or lap pools) then the last option is for you! “Group 3”

  • You will still get cardio, but in the form of exercises, you can do in a single room. This option was made specifically for COVID and people who can’t easily get outside.

Group 4:

This program is made specifically for the demands of male dancers, taking into account some extra work for upper body to support partnering, extra stability for the lower back, etc. This option is similar to group 1 in terms of equipment need.

  • If you need a band only option, please consider the co-ed options of group 2 or 3.” If you need a band only option, please consider the co-ed options of group 2 or 3.

No track is better than the other, you will get results regardless. You can find more information about the equipment requirements for each track by scrolling down.
