WOD: Monday June 8th HIIT

HIIT:  Tabata

Tabata is high-intensity interval training that consists of eight sets of fast-paced exercises each performed for 20 seconds interspersed with a brief rest of 10 seconds.

You can time on your watch or use a tabata timer on youtube or even better find a tabata play 
list on any music provider including youtube that tells you when to go and when to rest.  
Traditionally tabata would have one exercise for 8 sets but to avoid injury and to make it a little 
more enjoyable we will do two exercises per set.

Warm up:  5 min:  jogging, jumping jacks, high knees, stairs, biking whatever to get yourself 
moving.  Do some dynamic stretching.

Tabata sets:  
Round 1:  
Jumping Jacks & Mountain Climbers
(first 20 sec J-Jacks, rest 10, second 20 sec mountain climbers etc...)

Round 2: 
Spot Sprints & push up with side plank/hip twist

Round 3:  
Burpies & v-sit rows

Round 4:
Squats & jogging with air punches

Round 5:
Pop Squat & Bicycle crunches

Round 6:
Push ups (modify if needed) & inch worms (if you have shoulder issues don't walk out past push
up position)

QUICK COOL DOWN & STRETCH!!

WOD - Wednesday June 3rd

This workout is one of the classics from Superfit.

It is a short workout, but meant to be very intense, so make sure to give yourself a good warm up!  (5-10min... 5 min at least!!!). You will be doing squats, pushups and situps in the workout, so make sure to throw in a few reps of those in your warmup.

First step will be to measure out 18m as the shuttle run distance.  About 23-24 strides is the average for this distance.  If you are on the shorter side of average, add a couple of steps... vice versa for you tall folk.

Good warmup example
Jog back and forth 4 times on the 18m
Roll out your ankles, knees, hips, upper back and neck
Jog back and forth 4 times on the 18m
Stretch lower body (calves, hamstrings, quads and glutes)
Jog back and forth 4 times on the 18m
Stretch upper body (core, chest, back and shoulders)
Jog back and forth 4 times on the 18m
Casually complete 3 sets of 5 pushups, 5 situps, 5 squats
Jog back and forth 4 times on the 18m

Rest 5 min

 The Workout "Jeffro" Yes I named it after myself

Against a running clock (i.e. as fast as you can complete)
25 shuttle runs of 18m (each way counts as 1)
25 situps
25 pushups
25 squats

Giver!

If you're wanting more of a challenge, do a "Double Jeffro"
25 shuttle runs of 18m
50 situps
50 pushups
50 squats
25 shuttle runs of 18m

Don't forget to cool down 5-10min after!

WOD - Tuesday June 2 - Cardio

Focus for today's WOD:  Cardio

When doing cardio, we want to remember the FIT principle:

Frequency:  • how often should I work out?               • minimum 3x / week

Intensity:     • how hard should I be working out?      • In your TARGET ZONE
                                                                                      (which is 60% - 80% of your
                                                                                       Max Heart Rate - for most of
                                                                                      you that means 130-165 bpm)
Time:            • how long should I work out for?          • minimum of 20 minutes

_______________________________________________________________

Option 1: If you would like a video to follow:  Here's a 37 minute workout from Fitness Blender.  It includes a warm-up and cool down.


Option 2: Prefer a Darebee workout?  Check this one out.  Remember choose your level, I, II or III.  You will need to do a warm-up before starting this one.  Because this option won't as long, you will want to perform it at a higher intensity.




Option 3:  Rather do something less structured?  There's lots of exercises that allow you to work on cardio:  brisk walking, jogging, cycling, rowing, hiking, skipping, roller blading, etc.  Just make sure your heart rate is in your target zone and you are participating in the activity for at least 20 minutes.  The less intense the exercise, the longer you should perform it for.

Remember to submit your PE Journal.  Have a good workout!
