In the previous Instagram video, Packer is seen using a rowing machine. The Cleveland Clinic states that using a rowing machine has a lot of benefits. “Because rowing gives you such a good cardio workout, it’s also flexible in terms of how you fit it into your routine. If you don’t want to make it a long workout as mentioned, you can do short intervals between other exercises to keep your heart rate up.”

3. She Does Lunges

In the previous Instagram video, Packer is seen doing lunges with a bag. She is also seen doing them with a barbell in this YouTube video with Gymsnark. ACE Fitness states that lunges have a lot of benefits. “Lunges primarily target the lower body muscles, but they’ll call on your core muscles, too, because they’re a unilateral (one-sided) exercise. Lunges can be a top strength exercise to add to your fitness routine. There are dozens of ways to vary them, either by altering the move or adding resistance — and the payoff for doing them is big, namely a stronger lower body.”

This can help you maintain independence as you age.”

5. She Does Squats

In her Gymsnark YouTube video, Packer is seen doing squats with a barbell. Piedmont states that squats have a lot of benefits. “Squats are a compound, multi-joint movement, which means they exercise several muscle groups. When you perform a squat, you work your calves, quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and part of your back. A squat has more overall benefits than, say, a bicep curl, which strengthens an isolated area.”
