This routine is a great standalone workout but also pairs well with any strength or cardio routine as a finisher. If you enjoyed the format of the Quick Lower Body Bodyweight AMRAP and EMOM Burnout Finisher workout, then you will enjoy the complementary dynamics of the circuits in this routine as well.
You will complete a four-exercise, four-minute AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) before concluding the main workout with a four-minute, combination exercise EMOM (every minute on the minute). Your goal for the AMRAP circuit is consistent, moderately paced movement whereas during the EMOM, you will complete your exercises as quickly (and safely) as possible to rest before the next minute begins.
Note that you will spend at least half of your time in a plank/prone position during this workout. Feel free to relieve tension on the wrists by:
taking your plank variations to an elevated, stable surface
orienting your wrists in a neutral position with your hands on top of your dumbbells on the floor
substituting another upper body/core exercise for prone position exercises
I truly did not remember filming this workout, but the EMOM finisher sparked my memory when I reviewed the footage of me increasing the rep count each subsequent round (so rude). I challenge you to finish the last round of the EMOM with a forearm plank until the buzzer sounds. I surely do not do this in the video, but I figure you might want to add some flavor to the ending.
Whether you add some flavor at the end or not, I hope you enjoy this short but effective routine! Do you like when I provide little challenges during the video to up your rep count? Do you try to increase your rep count with me? Do you yell “no!” at the screen and simply ignore me? Let us know in the comments below.
