Workout of the Week

Here's our latest workout of the week:

Warm-up:  5 minutes brisk walking or easy jogging

Main Set:
  • 5 minutes jogging / Level 5 Intensity
  • 3 rounds of the following:
    • 2 minutes / Level 7 Intensity
    • 1 minute easy jog for recovery
    • 1 minute / Level 8 Intensity
    • 30 seconds easy jog for recovery
    • 30 seconds / Level 8 - 9 Intensity

Cooldown:  5 minutes walking

As always, be realistic about your speed and intensity.  Don't overreach and extend yourself beyond your current ability.  And remember intensity is all relative, even within an individual workout.  The Level 7 Intensity of Round 1 for the 2 minute interval may feel easier than the Level 7 Intensity of Round 3.

In the end, BE SMART!
