Today’s workout…


This was the last day of the 4 week camp. It’s amazing to see how far the group comes from week 1 to week 4. Things that seemed so friggin hard that first week, really come together this last week. Don’t get me wrong – 65lb split jerks are still hard, but not AS hard as week 1.  And let me ask you something – how come burpees are so friggin hard? They don’t look like they should be as hard as they are..Anyone with me on that one??

Warmup:
Calistentics – backwards lunges, high knees, tuck jumps, leg lifts
50 pushups
3 series of different types of situps – back situp twists, knee rollups, 83s

Camp: Total reps 3 rounds AMRepsAP
65lb split jerks
65lb front squats/lunges
jump rope/double unders
ring jumps
burpees/placement situps

Extra:
All of the above as fast as you can doing 20 reps at each station (rings were 40 reps).

Post your workout – I like to hear what others are doing to stay fit and reduce stress!
A suggested workout station I think people should try:  My PT station from Group training yesterday was 25lbs dumbell push-press squats, then jumping rope (#weight). I am sore from it and think everyone should try it next time they are at the gym or where ever you have dumbells. You can use lower or higher weight as necessary. It really works your shoulders and upper back.

15, 12, 9 reps of push press squats. In between each round of those, jump rope your weight. So if you weigh 200lbs, do 200 jump ropes.  Finish as fast as you can!

Let me know how it goes!

  1. Well, I didn’t get a great workout out in as I was at a hotel, but I did so somet hing! I’m really sore from group yesterday too! I did a couple miles on the treadmill and about 15 min on the elliptical. Then I did some core/ab stuff…burnt about 425 calories which is low for me, but w/limited time and space, I think it was good! Prob take Friday off and run on Saturday morning at a nearby park.
