Mid Week Strength with Active Rest

It’s mid week! The biggest challenge is showing up! Let’s get stronger on Wednesday with 1 minute strength with active rest.

Let’s keep things rolling!

We’re covering all the important/basic strength movements because the basics get results!

After each interval, we will take an active rest, which can mean a variety of things.

Active rest options can look like any the following…

• Ab work
• Light movement (jumping jacks,Pegs, jump rope)
• Mobility work or perhaps some stretching
• Band work (band pulls etc) to work on some imbalances
• Light dumbbell movements for shoulders or arms
• Some mace swings
• Ketlebell carry

Use your active rest to work on things that you think you may need.

Here are your strength movements with several options to choose from.

1 minute work/1 minute active rest x 5 rounds

• Swings, cleans, snatches or deadlift choice
• Press choice (overhead, floor,kneeling,seated, push up variations)
• Squat choice, upper body pull choice or kettlebell long cycle

Let’s work hard and get the most out of this one!

Here’s a classic from 15 years ago when we did the Avon 5k while carrying kettlebells.

Have a great Wednesday!
