Build Muscle with ATHLEAN-X - http://athleanx.com/x/walkthewalk

now before you say that you can’t work out because you don’t have the equipment or you don’t have the space I’m going to show you today how you can do what I call the walk with just a pair of dumbbells a little bit of space to walk and a lot of determination [Music] what’s up guys Jeff Cavalier aex. com so we’re going to see today if you can do the walk now it sounds easy enough but what this exercise is for really this circuit workout is for is to challenge you and show you that guys as I say all the time you don’t need a lot of elaborate equipment you don’t need an elaborate setup to get a good workout in you just need the determination to be able to get a great workout in because you’re going to work your butt off in this very short period of time remember that LX all the workouts are very condensed but that’s because I always say if you want to work out you can either train hard or you can train long but you can’t do both so let’s see if you can walk the walk today what the walk consists of is we’re going to work on all three of our major planes of motion here and I’ve mentioned them before but the sagittal plane which is basically working in this direction the frontal plane which is basically working side to side and then the most important rotational plane we’re going to do a couple drills but we’re going to travel we’re going to walk we’re going to cover some ground you’ll see that a lot of the common exercises become that much harder because you have to stabilize Your Body and Balance as you walk and conduct the exercises so first trip down we have our Terminator row now what it is is we get into our row position here and I’m going to walk and travel down it doesn’t matter how far you have if you have a hallway in your house use that if you have the outside if it’s nice outside go outside and mark off about 10 yards or so or maybe 20 yards if you’re if you’re up for it but you got your dumbbells here you’re going to get in position as I row up into our Renegade row here I’m going to take a step forward okay up I’m going to take a step forward so now I’m basically rowing and traveling a lot of work for my core where’s the name Terminator come from I think you can probably tell by now it’s somewhat robotic okay all the way down definitely different than a regular Renegade row okay cover down my uh my you know how far I’m going to travel now I turn back around now we’re going to do a walking overhead press so we know that in place a press overhead can be difficult but when we do it and we walk at the same time now it becomes even more challenging because again we’re sort of lost our balance we don’t have this wide Bas support we’re what much more narrower here okay as I step out I press here I got a small ceiling I step through here through here you’re basically aiming for about 10 steps so you have 10 reps okay next go into a lateral walk a side shuffle curl so now we’re going to step out in that direction down Curl Up Down curl up use your hips sink down in and curl up sink down curl up guys that are already using the n x know this as the Fielder curl right Peak tension at the top of that exercise here not a traditional curl up there okay slide down curl slide down curl now from here we’re going to turn it right around work our back and the muscles the rear belt with a same kind of kind of walk back but with a high pull so now dumbbells straight down up high pull down up high pull okay now last direction that transverse plane we have to rotate so what we do here face this direction as I step back I’m going to put both dumbbells down in a drop step lunge so here reach back that way come up and reach back working my way back across the floor much more athletic version of a lunge you’re in sports this is a more natural simulated movement than a regular lunge CU very seldom do we have to actually just step directly forward or directly to the side most of the time kind of stepping at an unpredictable angle okay last one the Beast of all of them it’s my drop step clean and here down to the squat position up and clean down up clean up a lot of balance legs are fried zero momentum one more that’s if you can walk the walk like I said it ain’t easy but you certainly don’t need a lot of room you don’t need a lot of weight you need a lot of heart be able to make it through the walk so guys like I say all the time and I said it earlier if you want to train you can train hard or you can train long you can’t do both could I do that for an hour no freaking way no way but if you’re training hard there’s no need to you can get the results that you want in half the time and again without wasting any of that precious recovery time that your body absolutely needs in order to be able to recover well obviously but they come back stronger build new muscle and be able to attack each workout with the energy that’s needed to produce consistent Plateau free gains guys if you haven’t
