TOTAL BODY 8 WEEK CHALLENGE - WEEKS 1-4

8 week 500

I have outlined each day of the week as follows below. You can complete the challenge a few ways.
1) You can do each day one time through, and use that circuit as your workout OR as a BURNOUT at the end of your current workout.
2) You can complete the workout as listed  between 1-4 times through depending on your level.
3) You can set your timer for 15-25 minutes and see how many rounds you can get in of each circuit on any given day.
Challenge yourself! On the days you need a jump rope, you can do high knees instead of the skipping. You will also use a set of dumbbells on two of the days as well. If you don’t have dumbbells, use soda or soup cans or water bottles. Try to get some weight in there on those days, even if you are just starting off. The last day of the week (7th day), will be your rest day, unless you need to make up a workout you missed during the week.
As the week’s go on, you will get faster. Keep your form spot on and try and beat your time from the week before! If you can’t get through the full circuit the first time through, NO PROBLEM! Use this as your motivation to get through it faster and stronger the next time.  You to compare how you did the week before and how many rounds you could get in each day during that time!
