Interval training

Interval training

If you've been following my site you would know that i'm training for the FAME USA fitness modeling contest so I've been changing up some of my training for Cardio purposes and to burn up tons of calories to have me rip as possible! This is a very effective way to train and it's great if your pressed for time. This was my workout

I used the 20/20 rule which means your doing 20 seconds of work and then you get 20 secs. of rest before you move on to the next station.

Jumping pull-ups

Ice skaters (which is like a jumping lateral lunge)

Jump squats over a bench

Med ball Burpees ( hold a med ball at thigh level then drop down onto the ball in a push up position and kick your legs back, then explode up from your feet back into a standing position dead lifting the ball from the floor)

Jump rope


It may seem simple on paper but after the 1st round that monkey jumps on your back and then it's a whole different ball game! Those 20 secs of rest seem to go by faster and faster:) I think we did 5 rounds like this.

Next we did EvIL wheel hand walks with the power wheel 3 sets of 30 yards!!!! really hammers your wrist, core, lower back, hamstrings, butt, shoulders. really a total body movement

finished with Dumbbell curls drop sets. 2 sets with a 3 weight drop. 10 reps per drop. I did 50lbs., 40, 35!!!!!

After this we were done!!!!!!! i think this all may have taken 35 mins. or less
