Weekend Warrior Workout: Application

Okay, so now the exercises that we did here, if you notice, are designed so that it's an upper body, lower body circuit. Now we broke it down into segments for you so you can learn them and do them one at a time. Once you master them, you can do the exercises continuous. So you go from one exercise to the next. You can do it as a super set, I'll explain that, or you can do it as a circuit. A super set would be where you would take the squat, for example, and super set it with the next exercise, in this case, the push up. It's a lower body to an upper body exercise. And you could go through that once as a super set, twice, or three times, depending on your level of fitness and how you're going to challenge yourself. You could also go through it continuous, straight through as a circuit. Okay, the next exercise after the push up, in our case, would be the running man. Another lower body exercise. After the running man, we did the shoulder complex. Another upper body exercise. And then we went to the Romanian dead lift, or the straight leg dead lift, which is a lower body exercise. Then we went to the triceps, which is an upper body exercise and then the glut bridge, which is another lower body exercise. So again, you can do them in pairs, as super sets back and forth until you complete the two, and then you move on to the next two, or you can do them straight through as a circuit. I recommend trying it both ways. It's, this is intended to be stimulating and fun and challenging. So challenge yourself to do it like that. And then at the end, we went through some more core movements. And again, you can do them straight through as a circuit or you can break it down and do several sets of each one, one at a time. Often times what we'll do if we're going to work out three times in a week, we'll do straight sets. Meaning we'll do an exercise, rest, do the exercise, rest, for two to three sets. The next time we do it, we might do it in super sets, upper body, lower body, upper body, lower body, and then the next time we do it, we'll do it straight through as a circuit. So we get a nice variety and a nice change of pace. And it'll stimulate and challenge your body to grow and adapt in different ways. And that'll lead to, hopefully lead to less injuries. So again, make sure you have fun when you do this stuff. That's what it's intended for. Good luck.
