SUNDAY. To Rest or To Workout?

Hi Everyone,

Sunday, Sept. 26th.

TABATA Workout.
set your timer for 8 rounds of each exercise 20 sec of work and 10sec of rest. After 8 rounds are finished with one exercise move to the other. Be sure so count your reps on each round and write them down. iphone has an app called tabata HITT that works well for doing these kind of exercises.
  1. High Knee Jump Ropes
  2. Pike Push Ups
  3. Curb toe taps
  4. Left side lunge w/ knee raise
  5. Right Side luge w/ Knee raise
  6. Jump rope (no high knees)

Should take you no longer than 24 minutes...

Explanations...

High knee jump rope---------jump rope while doing high knees as fast as you can
Pike push ups------------------start in down dog position, do a push up, the elbows will flare out and your head will go toward the ground.
Curb toe taps------------------you don't have to use a curb, you can use a step or anything about that height. alternate each foot while jumping
Side lunges--------------------lunge to the right, keeping the butt back and staying on the heels, step back in and do a knee raise... repeat until  time is finished then go to left.
Jump rope--------------------Reg jump roping. as fast as you can

Good Luck!!!!!!

core

Hello Everyone,

I did my workout today and it was an interval workout. 30sec of work and 10sec of rest. 6 rounds of each exercise.

Jump rope (of you don't have a rope just pretned)
fwd inch worm and rev inch worm w/ push up in between
broad jump w/burpee
star crunches
UFC's
plank

Inchworm----start in a plank position walk your feet to your hands trying to keep the knees straight then walk your hand out and do a push up...repeat that for 30 seconds. Then go in reverse feet walk backward and hand walk backward and do a push up for 30 seconds.

broad jump w/ burpee------start in a squat and jump forward, drop the hand to the ground and jump the feet back  then back in and repeat for 30 seconds.

star crunches------lie on your mat, raise your legs in the air, hands strainght in front of you. as you crunch up your legs will spread out and the hands go through. works upper and lower abs

UFC's-------both feet on the mat. start in a squat position, drop right knee to the ground, then your left knee (both knees will be on the ground now, step back up with the left knee and bring the right one up, then drop the right knee and raise with the right knee. So you are alternating knees as you go up and down. repeat for 30 seconds 6 rounds.

Full planks.
your are just holding a plank postion on your hands not the elbows.

GOOD LUCK!!!

I burned 340 calories and it took me about 30 minutes.
