Haven’t Had Enough – Obviously :)

Hi BodyRockers,

Today we were busy packing and saying goodbye to Kingston, but before we checked out of our hotel I went back and did the Haven’t Had Enough Workout that I first did back July 20th. This workout was perfect for the size of our hotel room and the only modification that I made from the original workout was that I used my purple 6 pound Ugi instead of my sandbag for the dead lifts – it was a less challenge for this particular exercise, but still a great workout. We are traveling with our sandbag, but we have it empty at the moment so that it can fit in our luggage :)

Now that we have our visit to Kingston behind us we are heading off to Toronto to start the next leg of our Burpee Tour – you can check the latest video update on our trip here. We will be shooting all new workouts this week so check in with us as we continue on to our next stop. Any guesses where we are going?

Best,

Zuzana & Freddy

Instructions:

All of the exercises from this workout are explained in the video above including variations for beginners.

This workout is made up of 2 parts. The first part is 15 minute long interval circuit training. Set your interval timer for 15 rounds of 10 seconds and 50 seconds intervals. The 10 seconds is your rest interval during of which you will be writing down your reps. Your goal is to complete as many reps as you can (while keeping proper form) during the 50 second intervals. This is the circuit and you will go through it 3 times:

1. Burpees with Ugi Push Up (my reps: 11, 8, 8)

2. One Leg Dead Lift (with Sandbag) Left leg (my reps: 24, 21, 20) – I used my Ugi today

3. One Leg Dead Lift (with Sandbag) Righ leg (my reps: 24, 22, 20)

4. Criss Cross Hip Thrust (my reps: 25, 22, 21)

5. Jump Lunge and Twist with Fitness Ball (my reps: 14, 14, 12)

Part 2 – Time Challenge

The Ugi Squeeze and the challenge is to complete 300 reps as fast as possible. I did it in 5 minutes and 54 seconds the last time and today I broke my record – 5 minutes and 33 seconds (huge improvement).

Enjoy your training and do one extra Burpee for Erin.

    • MariaBjørgJepsen

      Hey Vivi! Did you buy a real Ugi or what do you use?
      Love, Maria :)

      • Vivi

        No, no UGI ball. The only thong I have as zuzana is my Gymbosss & a jump rope ! For all other equipment it is home made : dumbbell, 2 chair for knee raises, 2 chairs with broomstick for reverse push up, stairs for pull up! etc.. and for the UGI squeeze, I put a tin of 5kg in a bag (to not slide) ! haha
        ANd I use a kid’chair for burpees & criss cross hip thrust ;)

        her equipment is too expensive for me. And more it needs place for all of them. So I do How I can !

          Hey Vivi, I’m happy to hear your husband is better !!!  Workout gear is expensive for me and most of  my winter ones have little holes in them so I went to a Nike sale today and bought a new outfit:) Three pieces for the price of one,) I told hubby you can’t wear an old piece with a new pieces as that would be a bodyrock sin…lol

          • MariaBjørgJepsen

            You are SO right, sweetie pie :) Totally sinful and VERY disappointing!!! 

        • MariaBjørgJepsen

          Which kind of kid chair is that? sorry, I just need some inspiration ;)

          • Vivi

            I have this one

          • MariaBjørgJepsen

            Ha ha ha, so cute :) Thank you!!!

    Hoping your travels to Toronto are smooth. I am enjoying seeing the Burpee Tour Updates ! Although,  it is making me have the urge to bust out a burpee where ever I go, LOL. My kids are like, “don’t you dare!”. I did this workout last night , this time I had my 10lb UGI and I used a 30lb sandbag . My scores improved and my time for the squeezes improved by being 43 seconds faster than when I did this back in July and I have to say doing them with the UGI was much more of an inner thigh burn than when I used my hard 8lb medicine ball. I think it is because the UGI is soft so the “squeeze ” never lets up. Looking forward to the next post . Have a great day fellow BodyRockers!

  • MariaBjørgJepsen

    SPECIALLY
    TO ALL FELLOW BODYROCKERS WHO CANNOT JUMP/SPRINT because of personal
    individual reasons. I have put together a 12 minutes whole-body
    workout, which doesn’t force you to jump in any kind of way. It
    wasn’t as hard on the stamina as the cardio routines, but great for
    working all major muscle groups. I really wish to encourage each and
    every one of you, who, like myself, are suffering from injuries of
    any kind. Some days it can feel horrible not to be able to “Join
    The Movement” perfectly and follow the latest workouts, because
    we need to recover special body parts. Let us NOT go down and become
    disencouraged. We are strong BodyRockers, who have the power, energy
    and will to think creative and train anyway!!! I any of you have put
    together a workout of your own, then please, feel free to share it
    with all of us :)

     

    I
    hope you enjoy it! 

    Set
    your timer for = 18 rounds of 10/30 sec.

    “My
    Foot Hurt” workout:

    1.
    Knee Raises (from pull-up bar) or Leg Lifts: 25-26-25

    2.
    Elevated Bridge Leg Lift, Right: 21-23-25,5

    3. Elevated

    Finished in 15:35. I still enjoyed it, though :) I will re-try this one tomorrow!
    Love, Maria

    • Vivi

      I hope your foot is good now ! ;)

      • MariaBjørgJepsen

        You are always so funny, sweetie, ha ha :)
        My foot is MUCH better now, I just started working again today. It makes me happy again, since I really hate doing “nothing”. But still, I have to be careful and not overtrain.
        Love, Maria

    You’re absolutely nuts! if you think you are gonna make me do the 300 mini squats again! I REFUSE To do it! lol On the bright side: I did the first part of the workout and during the second exercise I did alternating leg deadlift and for the third exercise I did sandbags row, cause last week I didn’t do back and today I know I have to do it. I’m so happy that you guys are having such a great time traveling, but on the other side life sucks without your daily workout! please have a workout for tomorrow even if its is an old workout please just post it. :) Have a great one!

    • Patrick

      you refused, funny.  come on, you can do it!  i needed to stop 5 times
      during the 300.

  • Annalise

    Hi folks.  I somehow seem to have pulled a nerve or something in my neck and arm.  Will see how I go with this, might try it without any weight and see if that’s ok.  Otherwise I will just do high knees:)

    • Patrick

      ouch!  maybe a good time to take a few days off.  i hate doing that, but i usually come back stronger.
      take care

      • Annalise

        Thanks for this Patrick, it helped me to feel ok about having a break, even as it was frustrating. Will return to rocking soon! Cheers, Annalise

  • Annalise

    No, damnit, seems even high knees is bouncing my nerve pain around too much.  Hope to get back on the wagon soon.  Thanks, Annalise

  • MariaBjørgJepsen

    I did “Best Ripped Abs” for the first time this morning, which was a nice short sweat. Quite intense on the abs :) I added 100 single leg lifts from my pull-up bar. I might re-try this one later, when I get home. Off for a lovely work day now :) Have a great one, all Bodyrockers!
    Love, Maria

          How’s your foot???

      • tee

        OK did your lose that pot belly workout today, and I think you tried to kill me! lol getting up & down from the floor is killer for me! so the get ups are killer and sleeping crab slaughtered me! especially having to lift both arm & leg on same side!  thank god no one films me!

        passing ball – 16, 11
        prisoner get up – 9, 7
        star crunch – 23, 20
        ab chopper – 18, ?27 (can’t b right!)
        counted each one, and didn’t think to do them to the sides!
        sleeping crab r – 7, 7
        sleepingcrab l – 8, 8

        • Donna chiotis

          I was trying to kill my pot belly…lol Those prisoner get ups are hard for me also as I can only lift off on my right side, I love sleeping crab and I don’t lift arm and leg on the same side, with the Ab chopper I do side, middle side and count that as one rep. I second that I wouldn’t liked to be filmed either. No workout for me today as my thighs are hurting from the 300 squeezes, my left knee hurts from the jump lunges and my shoulders blades are sore too:(

          • tee

            I looked so pitiful on the sleeping crab! I like crab where you do opposite arm & leg and you don’t lay down!

            the front of my legs have been sore for two days because of some lunges I did a couple of days ago!

            zuzana says new workout is coming today!

          • Donna chiotis

            I think you have mixed up sleeping crab and leg lift toe touches. Sleeping crab is bring up right foot with right arm supporting you then lifting left leg and touching with right arm. Leg lift toe touch is not coming up all the way but reaching with arms to touch toes…..

        • Donna chiotis

          I was trying to kill my pot belly…lol Those prisoner
          get ups are hard for me also as I can only lift off on my right side, I love

      Hi Maria, 

      Your gym ball is that a Dynamax?

      –Chris

      • MariaBjørgJepsen

        Hey Chris :)
        No, my new “baby ball” is a Casall 5 kilo medicine ball.
        The heaviest I have come across here in Denmark!

          Hi Maria,

          So it’s like a normal medicine ball.  That is about 21 cm in diameter or about 70 cm in circumference? Not 40 cm diameter or 127 cm circumference of the Ugi Ball?

          –Chris
          PS Still working on a article about several methods of simulating the Ugi in between getting back to normal at work, catching up on email and getting ready for a Niece Wedding.

          • MariaBjørgJepsen

            Hey Chris :)

            Yes, I believe it measures around 20-25 cm in diameter, but I can not seem to find any information on the package box or online. Weird! And I don’t own a measuring band myself (yet!). Of course, this solid ball rolls easier than the Ugi, but it is still a pleasure to work with!

            Are you a writer/journalist? That sounds very interesting! I hope you are doing well at work, feeling good, and that the wedding will be a blast.

            Best, Maria

            Hi Maria,

            Me a writer/journalist? No, just a DIYer that likes to help others. The PS was more an aside that directed at you personally.

            There are by the way non-bouncing medicine balls which are softer than usual for those who might want a similar feeling but smaller ball. I’ve seen both a Perform Better Extreme Jam Ball that is soft and X-iser Ball.

            –Chris

        • Donna chiotis

          I have a 2 kilo one like that but we have heavier ones with handles that you go up to 25 kilos. They are expensive though, I got mine on sale for ten dollars and then saw it for thirty dollars in a sports store.

        Hi Tee,

        You know I’ve simply given up on trying to figure those two youngsters out! It’s sort of a bumpy ride, but I just let them steer! :-)

        I do like top 40 dance, but workout to this sort of thing as well…

          I don’t know if I dare say it…but ….hang head…..I don’t work out to music, but…….. gasp……TV!   I tend to be a visual person, so seeing the images on the screen can distract me from the pain I’m feeling!

          My husband and I love vivaldi “four seasons” but I am generally not a big classical fan,  have to be in the right mood for it.  which is really weird because I used to play in the band, and loved playing it.

  • Cindy

    Sunday I did a long and slow jog. Yesterday was a 1.5 hr hot yoga class. Today I did treadmill intervals after 1.5 hr equipment pilates. I love that BodyRock helped me increase my endurance so that I can jump into any activity I want.

    I’ve got my Ugi ball so I’ll plan on this workout tomorrow!

  • Anonymous

    I planned on doing this workout today, but I strained my shoulder yesterday (ouch!).  So I’ve been lazy aaalllllllll day, and then I realized, hey, my lower body isn’t sore/hurt, I should do *something* active.  So I made up a workout- 12 rounds of 10/50 second intervals:

    1) jump lunges- 49, 49
    2) UGI squeeze- 74, 96
    3) 1-2-3 jump up- 21, 23
    4) v-sit crunches- 28, 32
    5) jump side to side with side kick- 29, 32
    6) high knees- 166, 174

    I am a sweating mess, and now feel energized to go on a run!  I’m hoping my shoulder feels better tomorrow, and hopefully be 100% by the weekend!

  • tee

    good job!  I love your treasure ugi!

    Hi Anna,

    I think you are maturing Anna.  Some of us go thru an obsession phase especial when younger.  I suspect you and Zuzana have something in common there.  But, as you grow older and see this as less productive and possibly unhealthy you will change.  Don’t be worried if you do drop bodyrocking for a awhile when you return to NYC.  You sound like a smart person and will eventually be steady and follow what is healthy.

    Take care and good luck!

    Hi Lauren,

    I think you did great! As I always say “form before speed.” Focus on the movement first and as you get stronger your scores will improve because your muscles will get more efficient in the movement. I also had to use a backpack filled with 10lbs in weights enveloped into two couch cushions and it’s the perfect Ugi substitute as my 10lb medicine ball hurt my legs and kept slipping out. Hope this helps :)

  • AudraG

    I managed to make improvements here as well :) My Ugi ball is a 10lb backpack with small weights wrapped in a towel and enveloped in two plush couch cushions lol. Surprisingly it works perfectly and is very comfortable! I use my 30lb barbell for anything squats or deadlifts as well.

    BurpeeUgiPushup: 13/10/10 (old 11/9/8)
    30lbOneLegDeadlift(L): 20/20/17 (old 17/17/15)
    ” “OneLegDeadlift(R): 20/20/19 (old 17 for all)
    CrissCrossHipThrust: 30/28/26 (old 22/20/20)
    JumpLungeTwist: 24/20/20 (old 18/18/14)

    300 Ugi Squeezes: 5:06 (old time 5:43)

  • http://www.facebook.com/ildiko.mazar Ildikó Sünci Mázár

    My burpees and dead lifts could be somewhat faster, but I didn’t want to sacrifice the proper form, and at least my results are consistent (unlike yesterday, when I knocked myself out already in the first round of the “Death to Fat” workout. …oh, I hope that 12 min routine won’t come my way soon ;-)), so I’m satisfied.

    Burpee UGI PUs: 9/10/10 (old 10/10/10)
    1Leg Dead lift (L): 17/18/18 (old 15/18/18)
    1Leg Dead lift (R): 18/18/18 (old 17/18/19)
    Criss-Cross Hip Thrust: 18/23/26 (old 20/25/28)
    Jump Lunge Twists: 18/19/19 (old 15/16/16)

    The 300 UGI Squeezes are today’s pride. My old time was 5:01, this I managed to beat by a magnificent and unbelievable 1:12, collapsing already after 3:49. …I think I just knew that death is inevitable so I raced myself through the squeezes – I haven’t stopped at all until the 100th squat (boy, my thighs were shaky). I’m glad it’s over though and I’m happy I did so well. I hope to see a new WO online tomorrow, until I wish good night to the European BodyRockers (and good day to America).

  • tee

    I can answer some armand. 
    the real time videos were dropped because it took freddie way too long to edit them and get them posted.  not sure why the tutorials change, I think it just depends on their mood or what they find easier, or they are just trying to find the best way to do them, because it does change all the time how they tell the beginners how to do the exercises.  and I think just about everyone misses the coffee talks, but Zuzana says she just doesn’t know what to talk about all the time,(plus I don’t think she drinks much coffee anymore)

    hi guys!

    I did this one again today.  My scores were pretty much the same as last time (old in brackets), with the exeption of the ugi squeeze.

    burpee ball pushup:  14-14-13 (14-13-14)
    sb 1 leg deadlift L:  17-15-15 (15-15-15)
    sb 1 leg deadlift R:  15-13-13 (15-16-16)

    jump lunge & twist:  18-18-18 (18-17-16)

    ugi squeeze 3:56 (4:12)

    so, some gains and some losses, but still a good workout.

    after i did 3×10 clapping pushups and a trx workout

  • Anonymous

    WOW! the ugi is the perfect instrument of self-torture! i love it! i got my first one for christmas, early, yesterday :))))))))  the 10-pound ugi. i had been doing the ugi exercises here with an 8 pound medicine ball, and the ugi made those burpees *completely* different! and the criss-cross hip thrust was so hard. i don’t know how they managed to make it both squishy and rolly, but wow…
    ok, second thing is, they were all barefoot in the pictures, so i decided to do this one barefoot, and that made the jump lunges with the 10 pound ugi twist quite a…treat.
    :P
    i really, really wanted to try the rolling pike (start in plank with your toes on the ball and roll up to pike then down again) and the snap-ups (plank with feet straddling the ball, jump your feet up to grab the ball, then back down). so i made the whole thing 21 rounds so that i could do all 7 exercises 3 times. i am soo wiped out!!!

     scores from last time and this time:

    Burpees with Ugi Push Up
            9 6  8
        10ugi: 8, 7, 6
