Workout of the Week-Circuits

A while back I stated that I was going to start posting one workout per week to give everyone an idea of what we do in our Boot Camps at HeadSTRONG Athletics. While busting tail to get everything else done, I forgot about my promise. So here it goes...back on track.



This week we concentrated on Circuits with 30 seconds of rest between each exercise. Here was the workout on Monday that left everyone a little tender the next day. (In defense, the soreness was not intentional on my part. After taking so much time off during the holiday season, it was to be expected):


2-3 Rounds of the following circuit (times for each bout are listed):
1. 1-Sided Kettlebell Clean and Squat (30 seconds R, 30 sec. left)
2. Partner Shake Pushups (30 sec.)
3. Front Lunge with a Press at the top (30 seconds R, 30 sec. left)
4. Turkish Get-ups (1 minute each side)
5. Bent or Straight Knee Prone Jacknife (we slide our socks on the wood floor)
1.5 minutes of rest until the start of the next circuit



Intervals at the end (30 sec. between each set alternating between the two exercises):
1. Swings (2Hand, R Hand, L Hand, Hand to Hand)
2. Short Sprints (Forward sprint, back shuffle...like a suicide but you don't turn around)


D-O-N-E!
