Today is Day 2 of the 7 day program. This is a 20 minute walking workout which is part of an interval training program designed for weight loss. Ideally, workout each day in order of the 7 day schedule and continue for 4 weeks. This is SERIES 2 (hopefully you completed the first program for 4 weeks!).
This interval training program is suitable for anyone who can currently walk for 30 minutes 4-6 times a week. If you are at that fitness level then you can start this program (suitable exercise for seniors, beginners, and people of all ages). Interval training is geared for burning calories and fat, building muscle, and getting past that plateau effect that so many people hit. Interval training uses brief bursts of high-intensity activity which provides the effects people are looking for…more results!
The breakdown of each day:
Day 1: Intervals: 1 minute fast and 1 minute slow x 6
Day 2: 20 minute workout
Day 3: Intervals: 2.5 minutes fast and 2.5 minutes slow intervals x 4
Day 4: Stretching
Day 5: 50 minute workout
Day 6: 25 minute workout with focus on arms
Day 7: 20 minute workout
When I did this workout 20 some odd years ago, I shed weight really quickly. I had about 20 pounds to lose and I lost it. Interval training is super effective if done properly. As with anything, your body will start to get used to the workout so I’ll create another program in the future. It’ll just be a bit more challenging which is what your body will need at that point. Please email me if you have any questions about the workouts. Always listen to your body and take an extra day off at any point if you really feel you need it. The last thing you want is injuries so definitely listen to your body and go at the pace that suits your body and your fitness level.
After week 8, you will have a week off. Yes, an actual week off the intervals. Ideally, you should still work out but do other workouts you enjoy. 20, 30, 40 minute workouts are fine.
If you enjoyed the workout, please subscribe and write a comment! I’d love to hear from you!
Wishing you improved health!
