Partner Workout Perfect for Valentine's Day

Leg Throwdowns

3 Sets of 10

Lay flat on the ground and grab the ankles of the person standing behind you for support. Raise your legs and have your partner "toss" them to the ground, repeating until tired!

Squat Ball Toss

3 Sets of 10

Have both people go into a squat position with their backs pressed to each other. Rotate to the side and pass the ball in a circle using a weighted ball.

High-Five Planks

3 Sets of 10 on Each Side

Go into plank position facing each other; then, without rotating your hips, reach out with one arm and give each other a high-five with alternating arms.

Partner Lunges

3 Sets of 10 Each Leg

This one is pretty self-explanatory… have both people go into a lunge position and connect opposite hands in the middle, then repeat with the other leg.

One Leg Deadlifts

3 Sets of 10 Each Leg

Start standing and facing each other, making sure your knees are soft (not locked). Slowly bend forward and reach toward your partner's opposite hand. Repeat.

Are you feeling ambitious?

Complete three sets of each move listed above with your sweetheart or friend! Look for a Genesis near you for a free day pass!

 

Keep the love strong and your heart healthy this Valentine's Day!
