Summer Camp | 6 Week Program for Building Habits, Fat Loss and General Health

 It's May and many of us are working overtime to get in shape for hot weather, wedding season, hiking season, more time adventuring with the kids season, etc. There are a million great reasons to get fit this spring/summer and I want to help.

I've set up a 6 week program that with adaptations is quite beginner friendly. We'll start with getting 20 minutes of formal exercise a day and through the weeks work up to 40 minutes a day. Most of the moves are ones that Pixel Fit users will be very familiar with so it shouldn't put you too far out of your element. The goal is to help develop a regular exercise habit and to lose fat for those trying. If you're working towards fat loss, be sure to eat healthier as well (I guess even if you're not trying to lose weight, you should).

Since it's so long, I recommend taking progress pictures, measurements, recording how long you can workout without feeling exhausted or something else to track some sort of progress during week 1, week 3 and week 6. Feel free to journal the entire time, you'll look back and see changes you likely didn't notice happening.

Before starting, here are some modifications you can do for the moves I think could throw some people off:

Burpees- I already have them as just a plank instead of a full push up but for those looking to be kind to their joints or have downstairs neighbors, feel free to skip the jump altogether. You can also replace the jump with a march (one leg lift on each leg then go down into the plank). As always, go as slow as you need.

Jumping Jacks- A regular in our cardio, feel free to modify with Step Jacks, Seated Jacks, High Knees, or fast paced marching.

Push Ups- Modify to a regular plank, bird dog or dead bug.

Plank- Switch to a dead bug or bird dog.

Here's your 6 week schedule:
