Be sure to ask a member of the Fitness Team if you need to hand doing any of the exercises or to learn how to use any equipment you haven’t used before.
Time - How long is each exercise?
The idea of this workout is to complete the repetitions as quickly as you can. To test yourself, time the entire workout from the first repetition to the last. Then the next time you complete the workout you will know the time you need to beat.
Intensity - How hard do I go?
This workout is a challenge against yourself, so work as hard as you can to complete all movements. To make it easier, grab a friend so you can encourage each other to keep going when things get tough.
Equipment - What do I need?
Essential: A set of dumbbells/kettlebells or a fixed barbell, a TRX and a piece of aerobic equipment.
Trainer Tips:
While intensity is very important in this workout, be sure to maintain good technique through all movements. Never sacrifice form for an extra repetition. If you’re unsure please ask for some help, particularly if any of these movements are new to you. If in doubt go lighter and ensure you complete the movements with good form.
