Stretch:
Comprehensive light stretching, then focus on deep hip external rotators, glutes and IT band (tensor fasciae femoris) with butterfly stretches, feet farther in front butterfly stretches, lying glute stretches, lying piriformis stretches, and lying hip stretches.
Resistance: 50/100 for time!!!
This is the last time you’ll see a benchmark-style workout this 8 week period. Good luck!
You can break it up however you like: 10 and 5 of each 10 times, all of 1 exercise then break up the rest, whatever. Just get it all done. This is for time, so the 3 breath rule applies here, too. If you need a rest, take 3 breaths then get moving again. As many breaks as you need, but never more than 3 breaths. Keep track of your time and what you have to modify to be successful.
50 pull-ups (assisted on a machine, jumping, or with a bungee if necessary)
100 tuck-up crunches
50 push-ups
100 squats
Cardio:
Run 2 miles (treadmill, elliptical, track, or hit the streets)
Cool Down:
Walk half of a mile.
Stretch: Shoulders, Chest, Back
Comprehensive light stretching, then focus on shoulders, arms, chest and back. Be sure to include: infraspinatus stretch, teres minor stretch, bent over lat stretch, wall lat stretch, overhead triceps stretch, seated biceps stretch, doorway or floor deltoid stretch, side deltoid stretch, straight arm chest stretch, and doorway or floor modified chest stretch.
