-80 squats ( I usually do 10 squats, 10 front lunges, 10 back lunches, 10 side lunges alternating and repeat to total 80)
-70 leg lifts (I usually do 10 fire hydrants for each leg, 10 squat lunches for each leg, 10 leg lifts for each leg with strength band and 10 bridge builders to total 70)
-60 Jumping Jacks
-50 Crunches (repeat the above to total 50 this time)
-40 squats (repeat the above to total 40 this time)

*Please note you DONT have to do what I do in the (parenthesis) but it is really good muscle confusion
*I also do not stop in between exercises in order it make it high cardio circuit training.
*It usually takes me 35 minutes to complete THE WHOLE THING, including the run.

Here is a link to a VERY good work out!
This needs to be started out with an easy mile run warm up. After the workout you need to do a lot of good stretching.

I took a cardio class at the YMCA. Each week we do the following as a timed exercise. A year ago I couldn't complete it. Yesterday I did it in 3:54 seconds - after I ran a mile warm up. Lots of folks ask for advice, or are concerned that they don't' have money for the gym or home training equipment. Well, if you are like me, you have plenty of weight floating around which you can use to your advantage.
30 jumping jacks
5 pushups
25 high knees
7 burpees
10 crunches
7 squats
5 pushups
10 crunches
5 pushups
7 squats
30 jumping jacks
5 pushups
25 high knees
Do that three times, and you have a good basic workout that you can do once a week.
Do you have something similar? I am hoping to find 2 more so I can keep it mixed up.
This looks great! I posted a link to a really good work out.0 -
