Warm-up: 1-3 rounds

10 burpees
1 min rest

Workout: 3-5 intervals (see demo below for details)

  • Begin an interval only after you’ve maintained speed/resistance of your activity at 6/10 for at least 1 min.

  • Increase speed/resistance until you’ve reached 7.5-8/10

  • Recover at previous speed/resistance until you are back to 6/10.

  • Maintain 6/10 for, at least, 1 min before doing another interval.

Stretch:

3-5 min using partner straddle stretch or partner straddle stretch alt.

Post how much time was needed to recover between each interval and time spent stretching to comments.


Workout Notes and Demo:

  1. Planning to do that “scheduled gym time” thing again. Begins Monday. May the 4th (be with you)! Will have a schedule up the preceding Sunday eve. SO DAMN EXCITED!

  2. Still doing the Zooms for the foreseeable future.

  3. Hope you’ll try that new stretch!

  4. Also, please spread these workouts around. They are FREE and they’ll help folks. Folks need them (and each other) now more than ever. It’s not lost on me that, I too, am a “folk.” :).

  5. Have a nice weekend. Get out and USE YOUR FITNESS! When you do, if you stumble onto some place interesting … with interesting people … take a pic. Send it to us. We’d love to feature you here on the site.


Cardio Intervals Demo:

I’m actually planning to do this outside while running (even though it’s supposed to rain) on the streets of my neighborhood. You could do it walking/running/biking/hiking/on your stairs!
