SX70: PHASE 2 NEW WORKOUTS!! PRE-EXHAUST
Well today is our first day of phase 2 for our”Sexy in 70″~ and if you look at the workout, the exercises are basically the same just in BACKWARDS order!! It’s amazing how doing a workout backward from time to time really creates some nice results. Typically though it’s best to do the BIGGEST exercises first, but for these 2 weeks we’ll switch it up! I call it “PRE-exhausting” your muscles 🙂
FUN, FUN!!!

INTERVALS
|
BUFFING PACE- Continual motion, keep hear rate high. Do a set of lifting, a set of abs, a set of lifting, etc…Little to no rest–FAST EXERCISE, but keep it as heavy as you can. Challenge= CHANGE
BOOSTING PACE- More relaxed but heavier. Do a set of lifting, followed by a short set of abs, plus take 1 min of rest, then do your next set of lifting…RECOVER between lifting sets and CHALLENGE yourself to lift heavy!
Abs ideas= knee ups on bench, vacuums, cats/dogs, walking/standing high knees, abs on a ball, crunches, decline cruches, ab machines, etc…
YIPPIE!! Me too!
Ok!!!! I am ready for this!!
excited for this week and love the mini-challenge!
Oh yes~ lunges rock~!!
CHALLENGE=CHANGE=CHALLENGE! MY NEW MANTRA.
I missed the gym last week (overcommitment between teaching and school committments) – should I follow week 2 or go straight to week 3?
I just love doing lunges!!!
Love the boosting sets…6reps! WOOHOO!
it’s a good program…if you stick to it and if you make sure to challenge your BIG MUSCLES with heavy enough weights.
I love the results~ booty is getting a LIFT!
I’d say to do week 2 and not to miss anymore…YOU MUST TAKE TIME TO CARE FOR YOU!! YOU Are IMPORTANT!
What are your thoughts about P90X?
Thanks!
Lovin the pre-xhaust! Killed me, but love it all the same!
So neat to hear!! Keep the amazing progress reports coming Candace!
Thanks I started week 2 – and loving it! Appreciate you taking the time to answer my question!
Excited for my bikini body! 🙂 Already seeing changes after the first two weeks!!!
thanks for switching it up!
So I am a week behind- beginning week 4 – now down 3lbs – this is the first time in a year I have seen the scale go down since I started thyroid meds….so I am in a happy place – thanks Michelle.
Week 4 is going to ROCK!
wonderful news Caz!! Your mojo is ON!
Thanks for the workout! Change is good! Love the challenge of the lunges! Back to booty basics! haha!
