Howdy Guys! It’s that third week of the month and time for intensification. The workouts this week give you challenges and I invite you to post your results here in this thread. Instructions are in the member programing document. I’ll be putting my performances up later as well.
OK…here are some of my results.
In Workout A it took me 5 minutes to get the presses done. I was using a heavier band and the first 50 took about 2 minutes using a fairly slow, squeezing tempo. I rested a minute and just managed to get the second set finished. The kettlebell swings were fun but they were deceptively challenging. I started to feel it at the 15 rep set and needed to take longer breaks to both recharge my muscles and catch my breath. The whole affair took me 7 minutes to complete. The sandbag thrusters were evil. I made a full effort to get deep in the squat and drive the bag up hard using my legs. Gassed out at the end but got it done in 3 minutes.
Total time: 15 minutes
Can’t wait to hear how you did!
Hey all,
In Workout A, I thought that I would never finish with the pressers :-). It took me a good 6 or 7 mins to complete those with lots of rests. The kettle bell swings were fun and I took a couple rests at 15 and 20. I used my 20lb medicine ball for the thrusters and had good range in my squat. Thrusters also included some rests. My lower back is a little sore today…. I didn’t expect that, hahha
Overall time: 16 mins 25 secs
Hey all,
In workout C, I misunderstood the goal. After re reading I now understand that we were supposed to take the average HR over 20 mins. I did an easy jog at 20 mins though and measured my HR afterwards since I didn’t have a working HR monitor. I will need to redo this KPI after I get my HR monitor fixed.
