12 Minute Fat Burn Workout – ZWOW #47

Andrea — Sat, 12 Jan 2013 05:33:46 +0000

Time to mix it up a little today I did one of Zuzana’s new workouts. This is ZWOW #47: 12 Minute Fat Burn Workout and I did 3 1/2 rounds of the following exercises. My goal is to complete 4 rounds using perfect form on the abs which I don’t think I had during this workout.

600 Rep Workout #6

Andrea — Tue, 08 Jan 2013 15:28:49 +0000

I was concerned my 14 minute goal for the 600 Rep Workout was too ambitious but I got much closer today, finishing in under 15 minutes. Hopefully I’ll break the 14 minute barrier soon as this workout is getting real boring.

600 Rep Workout #5

Andrea — Wed, 02 Jan 2013 02:55:55 +0000

I calculated that I did 10 workouts in 2012. 10!! I don’t know how that happened but I’ll be doing at least that many per month this year.

I’m still working on my goal of completing the 600 Rep Workout in less than 14 minutes. I hope it’s not an unattainable goal I’ve set for myself but I figure if I don’t take any breaks during the workout I should be able to achieve that time. I felt quite good today but my time was more than a minute longer than last time. Don’t know what happened there.

600 Rep Workout #4

Andrea — Tue, 25 Dec 2012 02:05:32 +0000

I know with a bit more fitness I can do the 600 Rep Workout in less than 14 minutes so that’s my first goal of the new year. Once I reach that goal I’ll start mixing it up a bit by doing all the Bodyrock workouts I’ve done in the past and try to beat my personal best scores.

600 Rep Workout #3

Andrea — Sat, 15 Dec 2012 06:03:00 +0000

My last bodyweight workout was in February. I don’t know where the time goes! Aside from walking, I’ve hardly done any exercise this year which is very disappointing. But it’s never too late to get back into it so today I did the 600 Rep Workout which I did a couple of times earlier this year. My time wasn’t too bad all things considered but I think I should be able to knock a few minutes off the time if I start working out regularly.

Killer 800 Rep Workout

Andrea — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 23:21:16 +0000

I have only just recovered from last week’s 600 rep workout! My thighs were killing me! I know some people work through the soreness and I have done that in the past but I’m not sure that’s a good way to go so I have been waiting to make a full recovery before continuing. Today I did the Killer 800 Rep Workout which is a full body workout plus high intensity cardio. This is the first workout I’ve done in a while which includes upper body exercises and it was good getting back into that instead of just doing squats all the time.

Killer 800 Rep Workout

Time Challenge: Complete the following 400 reps twice through as fast as possible.

25 Push Ups (on knees)
100 High Knees
25 Knee Raises (using the dip station)
100 High Knees
25 Squats
100 High Knees
25 Tricep Dips (using the dip station)

600 Rep Workout #2

Andrea — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 16:23:55 +0000

I much prefer to do cardio workouts and lower body than strength workouts and the 600 Rep Workout is one of the best for that. I was so happy to see I thrashed my previous score even though I haven’t been working out consistently. It just goes to show that every workout counts towards improving your fitness.

6 Minute Workout

Andrea — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 13:43:40 +0000

Today’s 6 Minute Workout is short but tough. The side pike jumps in particular are killers. This workout is all cardio so it gives my sore muscles a chance to rest a bit.

6 Minute Workout

Set your timer for 12 rounds of 10 seconds (squat jumps) and 20 seconds (other exercises). There is no rest period so I didn’t count my reps.

Jump Squats
Side Pike Jumps
Jump Squats
Mountain Climbers
