Workout Challenge

I have a time challenge for you all to try out! Complete the routine below as fast as you can (after a proper warm-up) and record your time! Post your results on my FB group 'Embody Fitness Training' and I'll enter you into a draw to win a prize at the end of the week! Remember to Focus on having good form. It's about going fast, but you can't be sloppy with it or your time won't be accurate. Do the cardio circuit twice and then record your results. You can go from there to stretches, or you can try out part 2, the ab routine.

Cardio Routine- complete all the reps/exercises and then repeat for a second round!
50 jumping jacks
50 mountain climber
50 plyo-jacks
50 high knees (total)
25 squat jumps
25 half burpees
25 russian kicks (total)
25 speed skaters (total)
Now start all over again!

Ab Routine- Just one round this time- get through it quick!
25 banana/boat- lay on your back with your head, arms, and legs off the floor, then sit right up so you're in a V-Sit position with your feet off the floor, then go back down to the starting position. Your arms, legs, and head should never touch the floor
25 twisting reptile- get into plank on your hands. Pull your knee in towards your opposite elbow. Alternate sides. Keep your neck long, shoulders over your hands.
25 russian twists (25 each side- 50 total)- Sit in VSit and twist your upper body side to side while keeping your feet off the floor.
25 leg lifts- lay on your back with your legs straight up the air. Lower your legs straight down toward the floor and then straight back up again. Hands under your glutes for back support if you need it
25 knee tucks- sit in VSit with your feet off the floor. Bring your knees into your chest and then extend your legs straight away from you.
25 oblique rolls- this one is a killer after all the rest! Lay on your side with your legs slightly in front your your body, rest back on the fleshy part of your butt, and do a side crunch- bringing your upper and lower body off the floor. Rest your upper body back down but hold your legs off as you roll to the other side to repeat. Keep alternating sides.

Okay, that's it! Remember to find my group on FB, Embody Fitness Training, and post your results!
