1000 REPS: CORE EDITION

So here's a workout I did yesterday that I had a real blast doing. It's based off this Darebee workout. You don't even need any equipment! Low impact for our fat joints, and as high intensity as you want.  Do it in one go for a high intensity workout, and spread it throughout the day for something more low intensity. Whatever is your jam, man!

1000 REPS: CORE EDITION

Do a 1000 reps total of any combination of the following (click link for youtube video of exercise):

• squats (regular and/or sumo)
• push ups 
• crunches
• flutter kicks
• glute bridge
• superman
• plank (1 second = 1 rep)

Mostly core stuff, with 1 upper and 2 lower body exercise to cycle through to give your core a rest. Working on your glutes (squats and glute lifts) and lower back (superman) are important to helping your abs maintain a stable core.

Here's Toby deciding to help me by adding more resistance to the crunches. And glute lifts. And squats. And flutterkicks. And all of it, really. So helpful.

I finished this in 30 minutes and I was s-w-e-a-t-i-n-g, I did 300 squats and glute lifts and holy shit my aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssssssssssssssssssssss. I started off feeling a bit sluggish, but my competitive nature kicked in and I wanted to get to that magical 1000 reps.

I think I'll be posting more 1000 Rep workouts. Maybe something like the 1000 Rep Challenge series?
