Starting Seltzer
Squats and Hops
General FitnessSeems like every brewery is coming up their own version of a seltzer, so I figured I would create mine! This is a recurring 4 week program designed for anyone who is looking for some help getting back into an exercise routine.
Each training day features TWO different levels of training.
Level 1 - Is a great starting point for anyone. Less volume, more steady state cardio, and every exercise is paired with a stretch or mobility exercise.
Level 2 - Features more sets and reps, bigger exercises paired together, and more circuit based training for cardio.
I also have plenty of suggestions for how to adjust incase you to add just a little bit of difficulty.
Exercises are easy to swap out with lots of built in suggestions, incase you don't have equipment, or aren't comfortable performing the listed exercise quite yet.

EMOM Flight 1
EMOM Flight! - We're going to do 5 different EMOM workouts for 5 minutes each. EMOM = Every minute on the minute. At the start of every minute you will do the exercise listed - once you are done, you rest until the start of the next minute. For example - Hit Start - Do 20 mountain climbers - When the timer hits 1:00, do another set. When the time hits 2:00 do another set. At 6 minutes you will switch to jump squats. You will see 3 numbers for each exercise 1/2/3 1 represents the easiest number great for a 1st time. 2 is a decent challenge. 3 is ready if you are! EMOM - 5 Minutes Mountain Climbers x 8/12/20 (Feel free to change this to Spidermans and the reps to 6/8/10 if needed.) EMOM - 5 Minutes Squat Jumps x 5/8/10 (Feel free to change this out to Body Weight Squats if you aren't comfortable jumping.)
