Planksgiving Total Body Circuit Workout {2023}
Happy Holidays!
This year has been quite the busy one, but I couldn’t let the holiday season pass by without sharing one of my favorite workouts of the year: Planksgiving! This year I’m bringing it back to the original workout scheme, not only hitting you with plenty of planks, but lots of total body movements to get you a solid workout in one quick session.
All you will need to complete this workout is a little bit of space, a mat and a set of dumbbells. No dumbbells? You can easily modify these movements to do with a set of bands or simply perform the exercises with no weight. As always, adjust the workout to your level and try to make it challenging AND fun!
Planksgiving 2023
- High Plank + Bodyweight Squat
- Low Plank + Alternating Bent Over Row
- Side Plank Right + Side Lunge
- Side Plank Left + Pullover
- Plank with Hip Abduction + Squat Press
- Shoulder Tap Planks + Marching Hip Bridge
- Hover Plank + Reverse Lunge Twist
- Reverse Plank + Biceps Curl
- Plank Rotation + Diagonal Lunge
- Body Saw Plank + Child’s Pose Pushup
Perform each set for 60 seconds (split into 30 seconds of the plank, 30 seconds of the other exercise) with 20 seconds of rest before moving right into the next pair of exercises. For example, the first set you’ll do 30 seconds of high plank right into 30 seconds of the bodyweight squat before resting for 20 seconds and on to the next. All 10 sets create one circuit. Complete the full circuit 1-3 times depending on your allotted workout time or your current fitness level!
