As it's July 1 I've given myself the challenge to do a ZWOW every day for the month.
Just completed the first one which I've done before. It was only a month ago and already I feel I've improved in technique so we'll see how it all goes by the time I have to do it again.
Here's the link to the video ZWOD #1
The exercise consists of:
- dive bombers x 10
- burpees x 5
- squat leg lift x 20/leg
- burpees x 5
- side plans lift x 10/side
- burpees x 5
- pistol squat x 10/leg
- burpees x 5
3 rounds as fast as possible.
Upper body strength is still crap and so are legs but I've improved a little, completing it in 19mins 51 secs (last time was 23:18). Just did normal burpees without pushups and did the dive bombers on my knees. But this time all side planks were done with the correct technique (yay!) and I attempted the pistols by using chairs as support and going as far down as I could. Much better than before!
This time I wrote down the times for each round too:
Round 1: 6.49
Round 2: 7.22
Round 3: 5.40
Wow pretty good! Can't believe I did the last round the quickest! Perhaps trying to get it done?
Calories for this workout were 198. But I kept the timer going until I stopped breathing heavily (only about another 3 mins) and I burned 213 altogether.
That's it!
PS. I know I go through all these little exercise crazes or things that I'd ideally like to do to (like a ZWOW a day) so even though I said up there that I'll do it for a month, the real test will be getting up early to do them before work. *fingers crossed*!!
