Diet Bet Challenge: Day 8: Weights and Intervals: Full Body Sculpt
Hi Everyone!
Welcome to Day 8 of the DietBet Challenge! Today's workout is a combination of weighted exercises and a 5 minute interval round. The entire workout can be repeated 1-3X.
If you don't have weights you can improvise by using canned foods, milk jugs, or completing the movements with body weight. Adding weighted exercises can help improve the calorie/fat burning aspects of your workout.
I went through this routine once, and followed it by a 3 mile run outside. It felt great to get outdoors and put in a few miles. If you don't run, don't worry! You can substitute cardio of choice, or go for the higher repetition of rounds.
