Fit Test!!

Every once in awhile I like to test myself to see how I’m doing with my strength and endurance in my workouts. I do HIIT training a few times a week, run, and do yoga, but I can get stuck in the rut of simply working out because I know it will maintain my weightloss. Doing fit tests definitely helps me freshen up my workouts. Shows me where I have improved and also where I need some special attention to improve more.

I started doing HIIT through BodyRock a few years ago and this past month they put up a Fit Test so you could chart your progress. This was my workout today. Craziness. I do all these movements all the time, but never for reps! I was SO exhausted and sweaty by the end. It was great :) Anyone want to give it a go? Do the following fit test and mark down on your calendar one month from now. Throughout the month incorporate movements into your workouts that will help improve your strength and endurance in these areas. Here’s what I did!

50 seconds work. 10 seconds rest. AS MANY AS POSSIBLE (do not sacrifice form)

1. Squat Jumps–30 2. Push Up Jacks-14 3. Burpees-13 4. High Knees-108 5. Burpee Switch Lunges-9 6. Power Jumps ( or Tuck Jumps )-14 7. Tricep Dips-27 8. Straight Abs-20 9. Surfboards-14 10. Burpee to Squat-11 11. Squat & Scissor Kicks-16 12. Power Jacks-23 13. Globe Jumps-21 14. Low Plank Oblique-17 15. Lunge & Kick – Left-16 16. Lunge & Kick – Right-18 17. Squats – Weighted-20 18. Bent Over Row-27 19. Reverse Pull Ups-32 20. Push Up & Tuck Jump-7 21. Mat Jumps-20 22. Side Oblique Jumps-10

Seriously. Killer madness! If you’d like to see examples of the movements, as well as modified movements, you can go here. The trainer explains everything.

I added my scores and am tucking them away for an entire month. I’ll revisit this test to see how much I’ve improved!! Super excited for this :) Happy Monday you guys!!
