I just finished the Workout of the day shared by my buddy (and certified fitness trainer) Charles Leslie. Though I did modify slightly what he shared to fit my needs for the night. I didn’t start until after 9 pm but that almost seemed to help me focus since the day is quickly winding to a finish.
*Here is what I did…
- 2 mile run (with 1 sprint approx. 300ft) barefoot Merrell trail glove style
- Immediately followed with 5 minutes weight jump rope drills with varying speed and foot work. The handles of my jump rope are weight approx. 2 lbs each.
- The second part of the workout consists of 5 chinups, 10 pushups, and 15 squats repeating as many of these sets in that order in 20 minutes.
- Here is a slight mod I did.
- The first 10 minutes I wore a 10lob weighted vest and during the squats I also held a 25lb kettlebell.
- The second 10 minutes I went for speed by removing the vest though I did still hold the 25lb kettlebell for squats.
I personally completed 10 total sets with varying hand positions and foot width for the squats.
*If you decide to try this you understand that this is at your own risk. I do not claim to be an expert or a certified trainer. I am simply a fitness enthusiast who blogs about various workouts with only the intention of sharing what I do to motivate others. If you wish to begin working out I suggest you begin with a Beachbody Challenge Pack as these programs are laid out to instruct you on fitness, nutrition, and proper form.
