Todays HYROX style workout is a true leg blaster.
We start with a workout that fries not only the legs but also the lungs. Then we move into some more specific strength based exercises which are focussed on building solid foundations for the legs.
One round is:
- 500m Air Bike
- 20 Squats ( 30Kg Dumbell Elite / 20kg Dumbell Standard / 10Kg Dumbell Beginner)
Repeat both these exercises as fast as you can 8 times.
For the strength part we focus on low rep strength exercises followed by a more dynamic movement.
ONE
Barbell Squat - 6 reps (Ideally at around 75% of 1RM)
Sled Push - (125kg Elite / 75kg Standard / 25kg Beginner)
Repeat this 3 times (up to 1 minute rest between sets)
TWO
Lunges - 6 reps each leg (Ideally at around 75% of 1RM)
Sled Pull - (125kg Elite / 75kg Standard / 25kg Beginner)
Repeat this 3 times (up to 1 minute rest between sets)
THREE
Romanian Deadlift 8 reps (Ideally at around 75% of 1RM)
Squat Jumps - 20 Reps
Repeat this 3 times (up to 1 minute rest between sets)
Give this a go and let us know how you get on. Drop us a DM on how quickly you manage the Air Bike, Squat Combo.
Good luck and don't let that excellence go unnoticed.
