One Thousand Reps of Fun

This was the workout we did last night in Strength and Stamina. It was brutal, challenging and had all of us dripping in sweat. All you need for this workout is some drive, an exercise mat and a bench. The workout consists of ten exercises. The goal of the workout is to complete 10 reps of each exercise, ten times for a total of 1,000 reps. This is a time challenge, so you want to get through this workout quickly, without losing the quality of your form. See video below for exercise breakdown and modified versions for beginners. This workout should take anywhere from 45 minute to over an hour depending on your fitness level. Take breaks when necessary.... but don't quit!

Repeat ten times:

1. 10 Burpees with knee to shoulder kick

2. 10 Squat Bench Jumps

3. 10 Pushups

4. 10 Toe Touch V-ups

5.  10 Bench dips with Leg Lift

6.  10 Tuck Jumps

7.  10 Plank Jax 

8.  10 Low Jumping Jacks

9.  10 Leg over with bench

10.  10 Kneeling one leg hop ups

In the video below, I forgot to explain Low Jumping Jacks.  Come down into the low part of your squat with hands behind your head.  In this position, jump the legs in and out in a jumping jack motion, without coming up out of your squat. 

We did a similar workout this morning in bootcamp. Instead of a bench, we used dumb bells. Here is the workout breakdown of today's bootcamp:
