Strength Cardio Workout

/0 Comments/in /by

You can be strong, but get gassed when you have to do something for a long period of time.

You can also have great cardio endurance, but lose steam quickly when a strength component is added.

That is where Work Capacity comes in.

This workout not only focused on building strength, but also challenges your cardiovascular endurance.

Workouts like this just might be the missing link in your fitness.

Here is how to do it:

  • Start with a foam rolling and 5-10 minutes of a Dynamic Warm-Up.
  • Move on to 3 sets of 60 seconds of the Front Plank, resting 60 seconds in between sets.
  • Starting with Circuit #1 you will do 10 Front Squats and then immediately Row for 2 minutes. Then rest for 2 minutes. Complete 3 sets.
  • Next move on to Circuit #2. You will do 10 TRX Rows and then immediately Row for 2 minutes. Then rest for 2 minutes. Complete 3 sets.

Enjoy!
