As a fitness professional, I feel one of my most important jobs is to make fitness effective AND fun. If you don’t like what you are doing it is going to be much harder to continue the activity, right?
One way we accomplish this is thru our “Fitness Boot Camp.” In these classes we use various exercise modalities and equipment to create a constantly changing and appropriately challenging workout in a supportive, fun environment.
One of our favorite Boot Camp workouts here at Kuzora Personal Training, in Raleigh NC is the “Blackjack.” Ask any of the people who participate in our boot camp and they will be sure to tell you just how “fun” this workout is!
The basic layout for the workout is as follows:
Perform One Jump Squat (regular squats are fine too!)
Jog 40 yards
Perform Twenty Push-ups (on your toes or your knees)
Jog Back
Repeat nineteen more times increasing the number of jump squats by one and decreasing the number of push-ups by one each time. Try to rest as little as possible.
Pretty simple, right? So let’s turn off the computer and start moving!
Oh, yeah, by the way email me if you can figure out why we call this one the “Blackjack.”
