Today's Cardio :P

Here's my cardio for the day. Lather, rinse, repeat......

Treadmill: 60 minutes or you can head outside & do this workout

For this workout you will alternating between walking and running for a challenging HEART Rate workout – meaning you will be in and out of your anaerobic threshold zone.

Begin walking at a brisk pace, 3% incline. Walk for 3 minutes, then decrease incline to 0% & increase your speed to RUN for 1 minute, then decrease speed & jog for 1 minute.

Next, go back to the brisk walking pace, but increase the incline by 1%. (You will always walk with an incline but the run will be @ 0% incline for this workout). You’ll follow the minutes/pace below:

Workout for F.L.Y. small group training

Here is the workout that I have in store for the first session. It is a different kind of weight training routine than what I usually do....and it may look very innocent....give it a try and you will see what I am talking about!

Start with a 5/10 minute easy warm up on a spin bike.

Single leg hamstring curls with low weight - 20 reps each leg pumping quick.
Back extensions with toes pointed out and a 25 lb plate. 15 reps

Leg press focusing on glutes....push thru heels - use low weight and pump quick - 20 reps

Stiff leg BB dead lift - low weight - 15 reps squeeze glutes at the top.

Smith machine squat - wider stance - toes foward - low weight - 15 reps squeeze glutes at the top.

Single reverse lunges off a step with 4 risers on each side - 30 lb BB on shoulders - 10 reps each side

Knee ups on same step from reverse lunge with same BB - 5 reps each side

Single leg press on sled - pump fast - low weight - 20 reps each leg.

Bench curtsy step downs with 30 lb BB on shoulders - 10 each side.

Bulgarian lunges - rear leg on bench behind you - 10 lb DB's - 3 sets of 10 each leg - back to back no resting between sets.

Circuit - 3 times thru

Plie squat pumps with 35 lb DB for 30 seconds

Jump lunges 30 seconds

Up and over bench hops with medicine ball slam - 30 seconds

Repeat all above exercises with no rest in between....and continue to circuit to repeat thru 3 times with out rest.

Finish with a 10 minute cool down of easy spinning on the spin bike.
