Torch-er Workout #2
Are you ready for an awesome, calorie-torching workout that will work every part of your body and get your heart rate up?
You'll definitely blast some serious calories with this sequence!
It's going to be sweaty, so grab your towel, your water bottle, some motivational music and a buddy!
You'll need:
Medicine Ball (or 5-8 lb weight, milk jug, filled backpack)
Jump Rope
Low step (or use the medicine ball)
Towel
Water
Buddy
Set a repeating timer for 2 minutes. Do all the exercises in the Torcher Sequence, using whatever time you have left in the 2-minute interval to rest. If you cannot complete all the exercises, decrease the number of reps so that you have at least 20 sec to rest. If you finish really early, add 10-20 jumping jacks at the end. If you can't do Tuck Jumps, do Jumping Jacks. The important thing is to keep moving!
After you have completed 3 two-minute rounds, go on to the Jump Rope Sequence and do it once. Then rest 1 minute to bring your heart rate back down. That should bring you to a total of 9 minutes. From there you can repeat the entire workout 1-4 more times, depending on how much time (and energy) you have. So you'll have a 45-minute workout (including resting time) if you do it 5 times.
