HIIT; OG

I felt it was time to incorporate intense conditioning into my routine and brought my back old HIIT routines! This was a great first HIIT sesh:

Warm up: 5min on the Airdyne, Foam Roll & Stretch, 25: Walking Lunges, Squats, Push-Ups, and Crunches

Using a Tabata Timer App, set it for 20 seconds of “work” with 10 seconds of “rest”.

Spend 20 seconds on exercise 1 then rest for 10, 20 seconds on exercise 2 then rest for 10, and so on. Keep going round after round until time is up! I went for 6 rounds, about 15 min straight!

This are the exercises:

  • Wall Ball
  • Ball Slam
  • Tire Jumps
  • Clean & Press
  • Push Ups

It was a humid and hot morning and I haven’t poured sweat like this in a long time! It felt so good!

Jammed my Spotify playlist “Boot Camp”

Hope you got some cool exercise ideas!

Have a killer day!

Circuit Training 2 – Street Run and Park Benches

Today’s 3 mile run included 3 stops at a park bench for a mini HIIT circuit, about 1 mile apart.

My warm up is a total body roll with a foam roller for no more than about 5 minutes followed by a brisk walk for about a quarter of a mile.

My running route is about a 3 mile loop around my neighborhood. To change things up, I’ll stop here and there for some circuit training. Today I simply used a park bench for my workouts.

Pavilion Circuit:
25 Tricep Dips
25 Bench Jumps
25 Mountain Climbers

25 Incline Push Ups
Isolated Step Ups 12/leg
25 Sit Ups
25 (2ct.) Toe Touches
25 Decline Push Ups
25 Low Squat Pulses

Cool down with a quarter mile walk then static stretching for 5 to 10 minutes.

I LOVE this style of training and will post more with different exercises, so stay tuned for workout ideas next week! Have a great day!
