Weekend Workouts are all about efficiency. Ain't nobody got time to sit around a gym for an hour on a beautiful Saturday morning. Get in, get out, get it done. Here's a quick one for when you're short on time, but you know you gotta do work.
Equipment: timer/watch
Goals: stamina, strength, muscular endurance, cardio endurance
Time: 12-ish minutes of hustle
Start with 2 min of burpees, counting reps,
Then immediately move on to the following 4 exercises, working at max effort. Transition quickly because there's no rest between exercises.
Squats - 1 min
Pushups - 1 min
Mtn Climbers - 1 min
Situps - 1 min
Repeat these 4 exercises x2, advanced Repeat x3
Finish with Burpees, picking up where you left off counting after the first 2 min and working until you hit 50 reps total.
Break Down!
It's always the ones that look easy that get ya, right? Well, this is no exception. Hustle through this burner as quickly as you can!
The format is simple: climb up the ladder, then back down. Rest as little as possible.
Start with 1 pushup, then 1 tuck jump, then 2 pushups, 2 tuck jumps, then 3 each, then 4. Go all the way to 10 reps, then back down to 1. Can you finish under 7 minutes? 5 minutes?
*for a modification, do squats instead of tuck jumps.
Spooky Scary!
This one may be frightening, but don't freak out. We haven't lost anybody to this workout. Yet!
Death. By. Burpees.
This is an Every Minute On The Minute workout. Start with 5 Burpees the first minute. Rest the remainder of the minute. Then do 6 Burpees the next minute. Rest with whatever time is left. Then 7, 8, 9.... Keep going until you can't finish the Burpees in the minute. When that happens, rest the next full minute, then try to complete the reps you weren't able to finish. If you complete them, move on. If not, rest another minute and try again. How far can you get in 20 minutes??
Don't like burpees? Try this one with Squats, or Sprints, or Pushups. Pick any full body exercise you like and give it a shot.
