1 Week - "Countdown challenge"

Blaithin555

Okay so me and a couple of friends are doing the "countdown workout" for a week. Its only a week long and it couldn't be more straight forward so feel free to do it along with us.

First of all you do the exercises below 10 times each, then 9 times each, then 8 times each...until 1 time each and your workout is complete for one day! It seems long but the exercises go down by 1 rep each time so its short enough. Easy enough? If you find it TOO easy start off doing 15/20 of each move and if its too hard just cut it down to 5 or however much you need to but still make it a challenge! But whatever you do, FINISH. THE. WEEK. Even if you take 100 breaks in between reps it doesn't matter as long as you complete it.

Jumping jack ( x10, x9, x8...x1)
push-ups
squats
crunches
jump ropes

Fell free to post with me about it and tell other members if its worth trying

What if you can't do a given move?

For example, no usable legs=no jump rope.

Don't worry just do another move on the list twice OR chose a new move of your choice, maybe where you use your arms more, here's some examples that I've tried at training

Bicep curls
Tricep curls
Front shoulder raises
Crunches on exercise ball
Plank/side plank
Knee tuck
Burpees
Mountain climbers

There's loads other examples on the internet, but the ones above are the ones that i've tried before anyway!

I'll try this when i wake up each morning! I'll be substituting push-ups with burpees though ( i suck so badly at these lol).
