Harder Than Ever Workout
Hi BodyRockers,
We have reached the “hump” day of this weeks workout marathon. Just a few workouts left until we reach the weekend :) These past two weeks reprisent a lot of effort and we should be proud of ourselves for making it this far in our journey. If you have been pushing through with us, then don’t give up! Let’s all give it that extra bit of energy and get through these last few workouts until we reach the weekend. After nearly 2 weeks of solid workouts, it’s about time we start thinking about treating ourselves with a little reward to mark the accomplishment. Any ideas what you might choose? For me it dosen’t have to be anything expensive or fancy – just some little thing that I will enjoy and that will remind me that I worked hard and gave myself the gift of strengthening my mind, body and spirit with you guys these past 10 workouts :)
Enjoy your training!

Instructions:
For this workout you will need your Interval Timer as always, Pull Up Bar for chin ups, Dip Station for tricep dips, and your exercise mat. Set your timer for 12 rounds of two intervals. The first interval will be set for 10 seconds and the second one for 50 seconds. Your goal is to push as hard as you can during each 50 second interval to complete as many reps as possible for each exercise. The 10 seconds in between is just enough to write your reps down. I had my old personal bests in front of me and it helped me to really push myself. I new I had to do at least 1 rep more than I did the last time. When you have a goal, a number in your head, then it’s somehow easy to work harder.
Skipping:
You can do additional 20 minutes of interval skipping right after this workout. We did that the last time and it is a great and effective way to burn some extra calories so if you still have some energy left go ahead and set your timer for 48 rounds and two intervals of 10 and 15 seconds. You will complete 48 rounds of 15 seconds of skipping and 10 second of rest. Try to change the style of your skipping for each interval. One more thing, if you don’t have a jump rope yet, then do high knees, jumping jacks, scissors, or something similar to get your heart rate up and your legs working.
My scores for this workout:
Chin Up – 5 regular and 9 chair assisted
Prisoner Jump Squats – 44 reps
Mountain Climbers – 87 reps (each jump counts as 1)
Clapping Push Up – 25 reps
Jump Lunge – 30 reps
Bicycle – 72 reps (each knee to elbow counts as 1)
dips – 17 leg assisted
Forward & Backward Lunge Jump Up (left) – 21 reps
Forward & Backward Lunge Jump Up (right) – 21 reps
Side Crunch (left) – 22 reps
Side Crunch (right) – 21 reps
Burpees – 14 reps
