March Madness Fat Loss Workout

First workout from the Turbulence Training Fat Loss Workout of the Month, or March Madness.

It is a pretty powerful circuit style workout. Only bodyweight exercises performed back to back with no rest and with a couple of minutes break in between circuits. As always with a new training program, I took it relatively easy and only did 2 sets. Better to be conservative and allow the body to adjust to the new moves rather than to risk injury or being overly sore.

This is what I did

1) Jump and Stick – 6 repetitions (1-0-1)
2) Chin-up – Two less than max reps (3-0-1)
3) Lunge Jump – 8 reps per side (1-0-1)
4) Spiderman Pushup – 8 reps per side (2-0-1)
5) 1-Leg Stability Ball Leg Curl – 8 reps per side (2-0-1)
6) Inverted Row – Two less than max reps (2-0-1)
7) Burpees – 6 reps (1-0-1)

Pre-Fatigue Ab Circuit
1) Plank – 45 seconds
2) Stability Ball Jackknife – 15 reps (2-0-1)
3) Side Plank – 30 seconds per side
4) X-Body Stability Ball Mountain Climber (Feet on Ball) – 8 reps per side (1-0-1)

“Bodyweight Interval Training” I did 30 seconds of squats followed by 30 seconds rest. I did 91 squats total.

Some people asked me for a copy of the workout I did last month. Now I can't give it away because the author is someone else, so I talked to Craig Ballantyne who created the workout for a download page and here it is: Fat Loss Workout from February.

Enjoy!
