If you’re short on time at the gym and what to get maximum bang for your buck, here’s a couple of metabolic conditioning workouts you can do in under 1o minutes.
Make sure you warm up correctly before attempting either of these workouts.
Metalobic Workout 1
Perform 3 rounds of the following as quickly as possible. Resting only when needed.
10 x Ball Slam
15 x Upright Row
20 Bodyweight Squats
You’ll need to choose the weight for the upright rows carefully and go a little lighter than you would normally because there really isn’t any rest period in this workout and you’ll fatigue too quickly if you go too heavy.
The idea of this workout is to go as hard and as quick as you can.
Note the weights used and the time taken and try and beat your time next time around
Metabolic Workout 2
You can perform this workout directly after workout 1 – I’d suggest resting for 5 minutes before attempting this one if you’ve never done this type of metabolic workouts before.
Perform 3 rounds of the following exercises as quickly as possible with minimal to no rest.
200m Row
10 Wall Balls
15 Sit Ups.
As before, record you time and note the weight you used for the medicine ball.
