LUCC Method Workouts hit everything you need for a quick, effective, total body workout.
What’s the LUCC Method?
It focuses on getting all your major muscle groups plus cardio to bring you the best workout when you’re short on time. Here’s how it works.
Lower body
Upper body
Core
Cardio
With LUCC you work your whole body one time and in 30 minutes or less.
Put together your own or follow 3 of my fave, all travel friendly!
Lower Body Ideas that work big muscle groups
Squats (bodyweight, wall, single leg, pistol, weighted, front, back, goblet, jump)
Wall sits (hold for as long as you can)
Lunges (forward, backward, walking, jumping, weighted)
Hip bridges
Upper Body Ideas that work big muscle groups
Push-ups (on wall, from knees, from feet, clapping)
Dips
Rows (bent over, upright, with weights, with a suitcase)
Pullups
Shoulder press (with cans, weights, resistance bands, suitcase)
Core Ideas
Plank (regular, side)
Deadbugs (these are an absolute fave and so great for those deep core muscles)
Russian twists
V-ups
Flutter kicks
Shoulder taps
Plank to pillar
Snails
Cardio Ideas
Jumping jacks
High knees
Butt kickers
Fast feet
Burpees
And that’s it! Pick 2 from each section, performing anywhere from 10-20 reps, and you have yourself a great and effective workout. 3 rounds is a great place to start!

[…] After reading everything online about knees issues from ACL tears (which I knew I didn’t have) to meniscus issues, I went to the doctor. He thought I had a slight tear in my meniscus and sent me off to physical therapist. Well, the physical therapist wasn’t so sold on it being a meniscus issue but gave me exercises to do, Because I wanted to get back to working out, I actually did them, but nothing got better. So I kept going back, and she kept experimenting until she discovered my weak glutes. We both couldn’t believe it.
