Here’s one “PUMKIN WORKOUT” from Pinterest! 🎃🎃🎃

Link: pin.it/1fXK0I2 

6 Pumpkin Workout Description Below:

 🎃Pumpkin Squats

• Hold the pumpkin in both hands and place it in front of your chest. Stand upright, keep your chest and abdomen up, and look straight ahead.

• Bend your knees, push your hips back, and squat down slowly, keeping your upper body straight

• Look straight ahead, inhale simultaneously and use your heels to force. While exhaling, stand up and return to the starting position.

 🎃Pumpkin Glute Bridge

• With your shoulders fixed on the floor and your heels stacked directly under your knees

• Place the squash on your pelvis, supporting your core while placing the weight on your heels to lift your pelvis off the ground

• Squeeze the hips at the top and hold for 15 seconds 

🎃Pumpkin Press

• Stand with feet slightly wider than shoulder width apart, leaning out 15 degrees, holding a pumpkin in both hands.

• Keeping your back flat, straight and core supported, lower your body and grab the pumpkin with both hands.

• As you lift the pumpkin to your chest, straighten your legs and slowly press it over your head.

🎃Pumpkin Overhead Lunge

• Lunge backward with one leg as you lift the pumpkin over your head

• Alternate legs and repeat overhead raises

🎃Pumpkin Hip Thrusters

• Fix the shoulders in a stable knee-height plane

• Stack your heels directly under your knees, with your feet flat on the floor, and place the pumpkin on your pelvis

• Simultaneously place the weight on your heels to elevate your hips.

🎃Pumpkin Patch Push up

• One hand on the pumpkin and one on the floor

• Squeeze your glutes and support your core to start

• Keeping your elbows tight, lower your chest until it almost touches the floor

This is another really strange and spookily weird one I came across, and it seems to have started a TicToc craze 5 years ago with many people uploading their own quite funny versions. Strange, as I can’t quite decide if I like it, find it oddly cool or just find it weird. But no matter which, it’s certainly fitting for Halloween!

You beat me to it! I was about to post this one! I haven’t done it but spotted a link to the workout after my post run 7 minute session with YWA this morning. If I get chance, I might make it a double yoga day!

I’ll finish on this Halloween night with a 20 min indoor row along  workout.

I know not many of you have an indoor rower handy, but for those of you who do, Enjoy!

I’ll be joining in (gently), escaping the Zombie carrots tonight after I’ve received my Covid Booster. (insider joke to do with rowing technique). 

Happy Halloween!!!
