Wednesday workout

[Guest guest]

Hi,

This morning I did Ripped 1000. This is a tough workout. I consider it a circuit workout. Some of the cardio is harder than others. I've only done this workout a couple times so I was a little unsure of what weights to pick up. Here's how it goes.

All the cardio's include using the step.

warm up 7's

cardio # 1

side squat lunge back/front raise- I started with 7's but had to drop to 5's and then I was still having to push

cardio # 2

stiff leg dead lift- 12's/ standing delt fly 7's

cardio # 3

pulse squats pulse lunges 5's

cardio # 4

push ups 70 -(for this I just went with my push up challenge and did as many as I could straight leg without stopping. With all the previous work before I wasn't none to strong. I did the first 25 on my toes and rested and pushed out a few more and rested. I did this a couple of times and managed to get a total of 45 all together. I know Jari does 70 so I guess I cheated a bit.

cardio- step

clean & press- 12's/ 10's

cardio- step

wide squat w/biceps curl 10's

cardio- step

tricep extension with leg abduction- (1) 10 LB I didn't do the extensions. Just too awkward to try and do the leg abductions at the same time.

cardio- step

chest press/chest fly- For this I did lying tricep extensions. Since I didn't work my triceps in the previous exercise and had done all those pushups I figured this was a good time to do them. I used 12's

cardio- step

abs

I skipped the abs as I always do with Jari's workouts, but I do think their not too bad in this workout. I might do them the next time.

I changed my HRM zone in a higher zone so I think that's a little bit better.

total time- 55m

Zone- 19 m

Avg- 137

Max 175

Calories-396

This is a fun workout and you get everything... cardio, legs, and upper body all in under an hour. I would say this workout ranks up there with a Cathe workout. Some of it is pretty intense.

I'm glad its over now though. I feel quite accomplished with that one.

Have a great day!!!
