Saturday - Aug 24,2013 - A new kind of tabata

Warm Up


New kind of tabata

Set up - 3 Cones 20 Meters Apart
"Concept - This workout runs just like a tabata drill. The only difference is that instead of timing with a stop watch, clients will run to a cone and back.
Split the group into 8 teams. If you don’t have enough people split them into 4 teams or 6 teams or whatever works for you. Less then 8 teams will just result in more running."

1.  Clients line up in their teams along the base cone mats. 
All clients start doing star jumps except for the team on the right which run to the far cone and back.   
When they get back they yell ‘STOP’ and then intermediately run to the closer cone and back (the middle cone). The rest of the clients stop and rest. 
Once they get back they yell ‘GO’ and start doing star jumps while the next team along begins the run.
Continue this stop/go tabata style intervals until all teams have run or if you have less then 8 teams, until 8 rounds have been completed.
Take a short 30 second break to demonstrate the next exercise and then continue. Take a longer drink break every two exercises.

Round 1** (example used above) – Star Jumps and Mountain Climbers 
Round 2 – 1.5 rep squats – squat with a pulse at the bottom 
Round 3 – Super crunch – left oblique crunch, right oblique crunch, double crunch
 Round 4 – Hand release push ups 
Round 5 – Split squats (alternate legs each round) 
Round 6** – Plank and Partner Sit Ups – lock legs for sit ups 
Round 7* – 5 push ups, 5 squats, 10m shuttle*

Saturday Oct 5,2013 - Poker Run

POKER RUN

We workout in a gym and set up 4 "stations" in each of the corners.  The following are the stations.

  • Burpees
  • jump ups/step ups
  • Star Jumps
  • Push ups

Divide your group into 4 different teams and assign them to a station. To start the game two of the users at the station play "Rock, paper, scissors". The loser will stay at the station and do 10 of exercises for that designated station, the winner will play "rock, paper, scissors" with the remaining people at the station. (Determine up front the order in which the users do "rock, paper scissors). When yo have a final winner, losers complete the exercise for the station and the winner will go to the center of the gym and grab a card. The winner will take the card to the next available station and with all the others at the station complete the exercise from the legend below assigned to that card.  

Once that is completed start "rock, paper, scissors" again starting with the person who has been at the station the longest.

The players will keep their cards until the end of the workout. The player with the best 5 cards at the end of the workout "WINS".

If you are waiting for someone to come to your station, run the width of the gym

If a Joker is drawn - EVERYONE stops what they are doing, do 1 minute plank and the player throws all cards back
