Workout of the Week

I'm training for the Chicago Marathon - however, I can't run every day. This week's 'cross-train' consists of the following:

400M Moderate Sprint
10 Squat Jumps
10 Pushups
25 Lunges
10 Dips

Repeat 4-6x, taking a 60 second break in between circuits. Follow up with 2 mile jog, and recover with Yoga stretching (that doesn't mean yoga, as in 60 minutes of exercise - just stretch well folks)

Sprinting


Pushups (note that there is no BEND in the back and the nose almost touches the ground).

Dips (can be done on a chair, a bench, stadiums, the kitchen counter, the bedroom, a porch. There are no excuses here).

 

















Squat Jump (try squatting further down and keep your knees behind your toes!)
