linwood ham - WEEKs 7 & 8

LINWOOD - HERE IS WHAT I WANT TO RUN WITH FOR WEEKS 7 & 8. WE ARE RAISING THE STAKES THIS WEEK - LET'S SEE HOW YOU ARE FEELING. BE CERTAIN TO READ ALL OF THE EXERCISES BEFORE YOU BEGIN YOUR WORKOUT, AND EMAIL YOUR TRAINER IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

THESE NEXT TWO WEEKS CONSISTS OF TWO (2) WORKOUTS TO BE DONE ON NON-CONSECUTIVE DAYS. SO ONE WEEK YOU MAY DO ONE WORKOUT TWICE, THE OTHER ONCE. I AM ASKING YOU TO USE THE TWO MOBILITY WORKOUTS AND FUSE THEM INTO A FLOW FOR WARM UP BEFORE PROGRAM AND/OR USE AS A "LINWOOD CUSTOM YOGA" ONCE PER WEEK.

EQUIPMENT NEEDED THESE FIRST TWO WEEKS:

  • TRX
  • DUMBBELLS
  • KETTLEBELLS
  • CHIN-UP BAR
  • STABILITY BALL
  • CABLES

ON YOUR NON TRAINING DAYS, I WOULD SUGGEST SOME MOBILITY WORK, FOAM ROLLING, AND SOME LOW INTENSITY STEADY STATE CARDIO - WALKING, CASUAL BIKE RIDE, ETC.

THE VIDEOS ARE SETUP TO GUIDE YOU FOR OPTIMAL FORM. TO READ DON'S ADVICE WHILE YOU PERFORM THE EXERCISES FOR THE FIRST TIME, PRESS THE CC NEXT TO THE VIMEO LOGO BEFORE PRESSING PLAY.

WALK - JOG OR JOG - RUN

BATTLING ROPE INTERVALS

PACED ROW - SPRINT ROW

PACE CYCLE - SPRINT CYCLE

THE GOAL HERE IS TO MAINTAIN HEART RATE TO SIT BETWEEN 74-91% OF MAXIMUM HEART RATE

USE THE FOLLOWING EQUATION TO GET AN ESTIMATED MAXIMUM HEART RATE:

206.9 - (0.67 X AGE) = ESTIMATED MAX HEART RATE or EMHR

EMHR X 0.74 = LOW RANGE OF HEART RATE

EMHR X  0.91 = HIGH RANGE OF HEART RATE

FOCUS ON KEEPING YOUR HEART RATE IN BETWEEN THE LOW AND HIGH HEART RATES
