JessicaSmithTV: Wake Up & Walk

Wake Up & Walk is a 20 minute low impact cardio walk from Jessica Smith. I started with Jessica’s 1 Mile Turkey Trot and finished off my 30 minutes with this walk. I wore my 10 pound weighted belt and weighted gloves to increase the intensity. I really enjoyed this combo and they worked really well together for my doubles workout. We get Peanut too, of course. She has a bone to chew.

Wake Up & Walk is 20:30 minutes; 2 minute warm up and 1:30 minute cool down. You are marching in place between every move. There are arm movements with most moves even if they aren’t mentioned. This is an entirely low impact workout.

1. Lateral skater taps; with arms bent, add twisting elbows/shoulders side to side as you tap
2. March forward 4 steps and back 4 steps
3. Alternate tapping toes out to side (low jack legs); add bent arm side raises
4. Alternating knee lifts to the front; add pushing arms overhead; add traveling forward and back 4 steps
5. Alternate tapping toes out to side (low jack legs); clasp hands on front of chest, elbows bent, and twist arms/shoulders side to side as you tap; changes to chopping elbows hip to hip
