KO Workout of the Week

Great job to everyone who participated in our workout last week! Did you feel the burn in those sit ups? Don't forget, Tonya Blank says if you want to do your sit ups legit, your hands touch the ground behind your head when you reach the ground and your hands touch your toes when you're up. You should be doing these with your legs in the butterfly position to center the workout on your stomach muscles and take the pressure off of your hip flexers! Here's our next Workout of the Week:

As Many Rounds As Possible (AMRAP) in 10 minutes:

5 pushups

10 jumping lunges

15 sit ups

The goal is to see how many rounds you can complete in 10 minutes...and no rounding up the count...you must complete all 3 exercises for it to count as 1 round. 10 jumping lunges breakdown to 5 on each leg. Start in a lunge position, jump up, and land in a lunge position with the opposite foot in front. Again, we encourage you to put the number of rounds you’ve completed in the comments. Good Luck and have fun!

  1. 9 full rounds...got through the pushups on the 10th. I upped the ante first though...I started with a 30 min interval run to really get my muscles going :-). Hip flexor is still a little cranky..

  4. I agree, the situps ARE killer! Oh how I miss crunches. :) I know I'm a week late, but I got 8 rounds in. First round was under a minute, last round took a minute and a half, haha!
