Today's Park Workout!


So I get bored of the gym or just running so I decided to do an interval circuit down the street at Sevier Park! If you know of that park you know it's hilly! FUN! ;) Here's how it went (kinda made it up as I went, but it worked out -no pun intended- pretty well!)
Circuit:

Jog down the hill to the bottom
Jog/sprint/walk back up to the top
• Sprint 100 yards
• Walk/jog 50 yards
• Wall sit doing 20 reps of bicep curls and/or shoulder press
(I used bricks, but you can use your own weights)
• Begin again

I did this circuit for 25 minutes straight with no breaks unless I was briskly walking.
Afterwards to incorporate more strength and resistance find a bench and do any or all of the following...

Bench workout:

• 10 incline pushups
• 10 step-ups (each leg)
• 10 tricep dips
• 10 side step-ups with leg raise at top (each leg)
• 100 (total) knee-to-elbow (start in push-up position, lift left knee to right elbow & switch)

Do this circuit as many times and as fast or slow as you want! Take breaks, don't take breaks-- you decide! This is a great total body workout!

HAPPY FITNESS!!!!
