Your 24th Boot Camp Workout Is Here!

Updated: Jul 18, 2022


Welcome to week twenty-four of my Boot Camp series of workouts designed to get you even stronger and more fit. Remember to work at your own pace, as these workouts require that you have a strong fitness foundation. If you are new to working out please see my previous blogs to get my 12 week basic functional body-weight training program.


This week's workout is called "No Holds Barred " because other than the warm-up, you will be performing high intensity mixed martial arts moves from wrestling and kickboxing.


After doing the warm up twice, perform the four rounds in order. A jump rope is the only equipment for this workout. If you don't have one, just perform the jump rope motion in the air (arms moving while legs skipping).


If you're new to intense cardio workouts, you should start with the lesser times for each exercise (30 seconds, and 60 seconds respectively), for one circuit. Eventually, work your way up to two (or more) circuits at the higher times for the exercises (120 seconds respectively).


Members, if you want help with this routine let me know and I can do a complimentary live-online online workout with you and your partner.
