Today we are going to be doing a full body workout. This workout is going to hit just about every muscle group in the body. We haven’t hit cleans or deadlifts in a while so I figured it would be a good to start making these exercises more of a weekly routine again.
To start it off, we will run a mile, but giving it bit of a twist. The first half you will run at your regular pace. Then for the next quarter you will increase both incline and speed. The last quarter you will increase the incline and speed again.
For cleans and deadlifts, I am more concerned about having good form when doing these exercises, not how much weight you can do. Stick with light weight to keep the integrity of the lift. As you get more experience with these lifts, then you can start to increase the weight.
When doing the circuit, try to keep it fast pace. This will increase your heart rate throughout the duration of the workout, resulting in more calories burned. Remember, higher heart rate means more calories burned!
