Training programs
  • TUESDAY 010213 Workout

    1) "Warm Up": Bike 20 minutes at a warm-up pace.
    We are doing three sets of back squats at twenty-one reps each.
    Choose a weight that you feel you can handle comfortably for
    twenty-one reps of regular back squats. These specialized movements
    are tough! Make damned sure you warm-up thoroughly with "air squats"
    and stretching first.
    2) "Power squat": Lower and rise as quickly as you can while maintaining
    PERFECT form. Repeat 20 times.
    3) "Bottom to bottom": Lower to full squat position (thighs parallel to floor),
    hold for a full ten seconds, rise and immediately upon full extension of hip
    and leg return to bottom and hold for ten seconds. Repeat 20 times.
    4) "Super slow": Take twenty seconds to reach bottom and twenty seconds
    to reach top again. Repeat 20 times.
    5) Finally, how long can you maintain a 2:00 min. 500-meter pace average?
    Set the rower for "Avg 500 meter pace" and stop and record the time at the
    instant you fall under the 2:00 minute average (2:00 for men and 2:10 for women).
