My "Toning Flow" (6 moves blended into one single flow, done slowly with clean form and as many reps as possible). I'm holding 5 kg dumbbell per hand all the time during the workout (6 minutes):
Curl //Squat // Explosive Over Head Press // Deadlift // Slow Low-Impact Burpee // Slow Mountain Climber
followed by
My "Strength Training with Cardio Interval" (done 2 rounds)
A: Dumbbell/Kettlebell Strength Training - B: Cardio Interval (bodyweight)
45 sec ON, 15 sec OFF (AMRAP) & 30 sec OFF between round
A: Slingshot/Around the World (8 kg kettlebell)
B: Low Impact Slow Burpee + High Kicks
A: Goblet Squat + Overhead Press (8 kg kettlebell)
B: Skater + Calves Raise
A: Halo to Pallof Press (5 kg dumbbell)
B: Walk Down + Shoulder Tap
A: Alternating Reverse Lunge to Squat (5 kg dumbbell)
B: 2 Lateral Steps + 2 Runners
A: Deadlift to Alternating Row (5 kg dumbbell per hand)
It's my first time doing Toning Flow (just created my own custom workout last week and I don't know if the term does make sense...). I thought that it would be easy enough just like a sort of up-graded warm-up (?) but I was so wrong! 6 minutes is more than enough to make me sweat and slightly out of breath. That makes it difficult to concentrate to count how many reps I can do.
Whereas for the Strength Training with Cardio Interval, it's the 2nd time I'm doing this. I was sore during 72 hours!
In the middle of the workouts, I was thinking "Oh my... why am I doing this?" but decided to continue. I'm glad I get everything done safely, taking longer breaks when necessary. It's a kind of challenge to my self to know "Oh my body is able to tackle those moves, yeah...!"
