I am still in Tempe, Arizona for my Fascial Stretch Therapist course, and, since this is Thursday night, I am preparing for tomorrow’s final day. We have to work through the stretching sequence with a partner, who will not be able to cue us (until now we’ve been working like a team). There is also a practical test, so as soon as I’m finished typing and scheduling this post, it’s back to the books for me.
This is a workout that I posted a couple years ago, but it’s a lot of fun and very challenging. It really is a total body functional workout. You don’t need any equipment, and you can do it anywhere, but it’s nice to have somewhere where you can run, which you’ll be doing after each set. Have at it!
Fast and Furious Total Body Functional Workout
This workout is pretty high intensity from beginning to end, including a quarter mile run to finish off each set. It will really get your heart rate up and work your whole body in a short amount of time. Each set takes less that five minutes (plus the run), so you can complete a great workout in less than a half hour. Because it needs no equipments, you can take it outdoors (maybe to the high school track for a great place to get your running in).
Enjoy the workout! What are your plans for the weekend?

This is a great workout! I’m traveling to AZ once a month now – I’ll have to keep this in mind because its wayyyyy to hot to do anything outdoors.

This looks like a great workout; fairly quick, but intense! I hope the last day of your training went well and that you have a great rest of your weekend!

I’m definitely going to try this one once my hip pain resolves completely! I did 10 miles this morning (the longest LR since August 2nd when I got hurt) and am feeling pretty good about it. No other major plans for the long weekend yet though ๐
