Strength & Weight Loss
CORE:
150 sit ups (beginners do 75)
LOWER:
20 (each leg) step ups* w/ dumbbells –don’t alternate. Do right leg, then left leg.
20 squats w/ dumbbells or modified w/out dumbbells
400 meter run (=1/4 mile) or 1/2 mile bike
REPEAT SET 4 TIMES (as fast as you can)
* you can use a stair, a sturdy piano bench or kitchen chair, a planter box, etc.
RUNNERS: remember to add your run.
I did 2 sets of weights then I ran a little over a mile to meet the ladies that walk and then we walked 5 miles. I still need to do the sit ups.
ReplyDelete150 sit ups!?!?!!! Is that a typo? =)
ReplyDeleteI wish I would have looked at the workout before I got on my bike and then showered! I'm going to do this one tomorrow. My foot has been killing me so I went to the doctor and there's a place where the bone hasn't fused together so I have to bike it until I can get into the podiatrist. SO ANNOYED! Everytime I start to progress, I get slapped in the face. (I've been a little onery, in case you haven't noticed, Jen!)I rebelled and felt sorry for myself all weekend and sat on my butt. Decided that wasn't helping so I really pushed myself on my bike and feel much better. Our stake is doing a 5k, 10k, and half marathon every month. I am so excited! I hope my foot isn't as bad as the reg dr said so I can do it each month.
ReplyDeleteAng, have you forgotten that Jenny loves sit-ups!!!
ReplyDeleteI just did the sit ups and I don't think my tail bone has any skin left on in. The last 20 were tough! I almost had to put my feet under something. Yes I still love sit ups. Tammy, B U M M E R that stinks! Way to go on your bike. I will try to remember to put bike instructions on the workouts.
ReplyDeleteI did it! I broke the sit ups up by doing some with each set. I still had a hard time with them, but I do love to have my abs feel sore, so I guess its worth it.
