Welcome to the eighth and final week of our “Feel The Burn” workout series!
Over the last 8 weeks we’ve pushed, pulled, ran, jumped, and otherwise sweated to get to the point where we are now.
There’s been cardio; there’s been strength training; and hopefully you’ve seen a lot of amazing progress!
So now we enter the last week – your last opportunity to get that summer bod rocking so you can uncover with confidence.
So what are we waiting for?!

Here’s how the “Feel the Burn” series works: below you will find 2 different workouts –Cardio and Strength. I want you to alternate performing these workouts and try to do them 2-3 times each this week (performing each twice would be 4 workouts for the week; 3 times each means 6 workouts this week). I recommend trying to do them one a day and work them into your weekly schedule as possible.
 
THE WORKOUTS
 

 Workout 1 – CARDIO

Taking things outdoors this week as we enjoy some of the beautiful weather! With your cardio workout this week we’ll run through 3 sets of three different circuits. All you need is three markers (cones, socks, your kids’ toys… get creative) to set up for our ladder runs and about 30 yards of space to do them (our backyard is long and skinny; you can also head to the park, a parking lot, or even the street/sidewalk in front of your house if you don’t mind revealing a little crazy to the neighbors!).

Set up the ladder: Find your starting point and put one marker about 30 feet (10 yards; about 10 meters) away. Then put another one 30 feet beyond that (20 yards; about 20 meters) and finally your third 30 feet beyond that (at the 30 yards/meter mark. So you should have a starting line and then 3 cones – 30, 60, and 90 feet out.

Ladder sprints are performed by sprinting to cone #1 and then sprinting back to the start. You then sprint to cone #2 and then back to the start and finally sprint to cone #3 and then back to the start. That’s 1 ladder.
