Today’s…

workout of the day, we are going to be doing an explosive arm workout to get our week started off on the right note. 

Cardio Round 1…

To start off the workout, we are going to be doing a 1.5 mile run. This will really get your heart pumping for this workout while also loosening up those muscles. This should take you about 15 minutes to complete. Feel free to play around with the incline percentages and also the speed to make it more challenging. 

Weights Round 1…
 
In today’s workout, there is only going to be 1 round of weights which will be made up of 8 different exercises. If you want to superset some of the exercises to make it go by faster and keep the intensity up, feel free to do so! There is a mix of machine, cable, and dumbbells in this workout to target all different types of resistance. 

Cardio Round 2…

For our second round of cardio we are going to do the stairmaster for 8 minutes. The intensity is totally up to you, but I would suggest keeping the intensity medium to high to get the most of the workout. 

Abs

To end the workout, we are going to do a quick ab workout which will only be 2 exercises for 4 sets each. I used weights when doing these to increase the intensity and really work those abdominal muscles. 

Stretch

To end the workout, stretch out those muscles to prevent soreness and injury. Recovery is the most important part after working out, so make sure to take care of your body and it will take care of you. Stretch it out for a total of 10 – 15 minutes depending on how much time you have.

Less Intense Version:

 The goal with the less intense versions is to scale the workout back so someone who might just be starting to workout would be able to complete the workouts. If you find the less intense versions becoming too easy for you, but you cannot still do the full tailored option, I would suggest doing a mix of the 2. The best way to see results is to challenge yourself each and every day.
