Workout Wednesday - Fat Blasting Full Body Circuit
January 15, 2014
Get ready to kick it into high gear, because this week's workout is extremely challenging! It's another full body circuit. Try to complete each set before taking a break. Remember, as runners it's important that we add strength training to our workouts so we can strengthen our core and run stronger! Also, if you missed last week's workout, check it out here. Good luck ladies!
1 mile run
4 Sets:
Assisted Pull Ups - 20
Pushups - 20
Dips - 20
Stationary Lunges - 10 each leg
Deadlifts - 10
Sumo Squats - 10
Mtn. Climbers - 20
Frog Jumps - 20
Box Jumps - 10
Burpees - 20
Jump Rope - 100
End with 30 minutes of cardio at a moderate intensity. Honestly, I usually cycle for thirty minutes, especially if my legs are extremely sore. The treadmill and I can only get along for one round of cardio a day :) Also, one thing that I've realized is that my 1 mile run before the workout is getting a lot slower. By mid-week, my legs feel like jello from Monday and Tuesday's workouts. So don't feel bad if you aren't hitting your ideal pace or your even typical running pace when completing this type of strength training.
On a side note, shout out to my fiancé Chris! We are two weeks into our workouts and he is still hanging in there with me.
