Wow Booty Workout

Hi BodyRockers,

I hope that you are doing great and that you are keeping up with our diet challenge for this week.Today we are doing super a intense combined workout.  The workout is divided into 3 parts that you will do back to back. The first part of the workout is 4 minutes of high intensity interval training and the only thing you will need is your Gymboss Interval Timer. Set your timer for 16 rounds of 5 second and 10 second long intervals. You start with the short interval and as soon as you hear the beep of your timer start doing high knees at your maximum effort. Your goal is to put all of your energy into the exercise and sprint as fast as you can during the 10 second interval. As soon as you hear the beep tone again, drop down on your belly and stay there for 5 seconds until the timer tells you to get up and keep going with the high knees. You will complete 16 rounds of this craziness. At the end of the 4 minutes you should be sweating and breathing hard like me. If your not, then it means only one thing – you haven’t been pushing yourself at your maximum effort!



After a short break – 1 minute and a sip of water, you will move on to the second part of the workout which is a time challenge. You will need your Gymboss Interval Timer again and this time you will set it up as a stop watch. I was also using my 35 pound Sandbag, so unless you are a complete beginner, you can use the extra weight to kick up the intensity of this challenge. You can always play with the weight of the sandbag and make it as heavy as you need to for your fitness level. I went over the exercises and modifications for beginners in the instructional video for this workout.

I completed part 2 in 7 minutes and 54 seconds, so you guys can try to beat my time. There are 30 sets in this mini workout that you have to complete as fast as possible. Check out the step by step photo tutorial and the instructional video so that you know the exact flow of this routine.

Finally the 3rd part of this workout is the same as part 1. At this point you might be considering giving up, however I hope that you will find that last little bit of strength inside and do it. BodyRockers never give up ;)

Enjoy your workout!

Best,

Zuzana.

    Hey Zuzana, what is the name of your nike shoe? Is it the Miler? I just love that shoe. By the way I did the “Fitness is sexy” workout today and it kicked my butt. I was afraid of doing the jump tucks but I tried the modified version of it and I was able to do it. Thanks.

    Z,

    I just ordered my Gymboss! I was using another timer I got at walmart but it wasn’t working out.(didn’t do intervals, I was having to set it everytime.) I got the pink one. I think it’s funny how where it says “Where did you hear of us?” Your name is on the list.

    Great work out! Thanks for everything.

    Hi Z
    I want to do this workout tomorrow but I don’t have a sandbag. I go to a gym, what do you suggest could I use instead? I was thinking of making my own sandbag since I have many beach’s around me.
    Thanks

    If you have a smartphone with android or an iphone, there are so many apps for intvervall timer you can download for free …

  • Kathi

    hey!

    I also dont have a sandbag, but here is what I do:

    take a a small sportbag or backpack or … and fill it with whatever you can imagine. if your @gym you could use dumbbells or the weight from the weight bars.
    I do my workouts @ home so I fill my sportbag with waterbottles and 2 small dumbbells …. there are many possibilities.

    regards…

    Hey Zuzana,
    I’m new to BodyRock and am loving it! I was wondering what the importance of ARD is. Would there be negative results to do a workout everyday?
    Thanks for this incredible site. You’ve been a lifesaver.

    Did this workout yesterday and could not believe how much I felt it this morning…AWESOME Workout!!! Love to feel the burn!

  • Aia

    GREAT workout! I feel like I just ran for 60 min uphill.

    My time for round 2 was 6.46. (But I don’t have a sandbag yet so I just used a 20 ibs of rice.)

  • Georgia1

    great workout! I don’t have the sandbag so I used a 5kg medicine ball! It is not as heavy so it wasn’t as much of a challenge as the sandbag but it add weight and I could drop the ball down easily. I am still sore from Wednesdays time challenge!

  • Ann

    As if my arse wasn’t sore enough from the last workout… lol. This was a great workout. I got 6:26 on the time challenge but then again I was carrying 25 less pounds in my bag. Thanks guys!

  • shauna

    I am trying to access your recommended warm up routine and can’t figure out how to access the video for that work out. What am I not doing correctly? I am new to your site.

  • http://www.bodyrock.tv/ Zuzana – BodyRock.Tv

    Hi Shauna,

    Our site is right now in a bad shape a many videos are not showing up. We are going to have a new site in about 1 month that will be just perfect and very easy to follow.

    Zuzana, Hi!
    I wanted to ask you something, I’m doing a 45-50 min of spinning session four times a week. I have a normal body mass index, but I’m looking to low my fat percentage. Do you think doing my spinning plus one of your workouts, would be too much ? i really dont want to lose any lean muscle!

    Hope to hear from you, greetings from Mexico!

    Done!! Wow. Good stuff! Easy to follow, tough to keep up! I did all 3 parts. =)

    It was strange, because when I started the high knees I was on fire, then I just didn’t have the strength to do high knees anymore…I just could NOT do it, I tried so hard! [But I definitely kept the pace though with the jogging modification.] Then after part 2, and I just HAD to do part 3, cause I’m a bodyrocker dammit! lol xD Anyways then I went CRAZY. High knees all the way!!! YEAH! <3 The sweat was pouring.
