No Rest for the Ugi Workout 12 min
2012
This 12 minute interval training workout goes through 11 Ugi exercises, one is done on both sides, so lots of change ups in this one! You can also set your timer for 24 minutes to get a longer workout in. There are a few new Ugi exercises in this which I am doing for the first time, which is always great. I love to change it up. Doing different exercises keeps the body guessing, which is great for bodybuilding and keeps me entertained!
If you do not have an Ugi, most of these exercises can be done with either bodyweight or with using a medicine ball or other weight. Modify to get the most out of it for you using what you have available.
If you are interested in getting an Ugi, check out my resource page!

Start in plank with hands on Ugi, bring one knee up and twist body bringing the hip on same side as that knee close to or touching the ball, return to plank and repeat on other side, continue alternating sides. For bodyweight version, start in plank and do knee to opposite elbow knee tucks, alternating sides
