Hi Everyone!

Welcome to Day 28 of the 30 Day Workout Challenge! I really enjoyed this workout. It’s a nice combination of strength, stretch, and cardiovascular challenge. It’s a great full body workout, and it is also a good cross training workout for runners. 

I have posted two alternate cardio options below for those of you that don’t run. You can pick the one that appeals to you the most, or alternate each round with a different cardio challenge. 

I repeated this workout 3X and added some weights for rounds 2 & 3. I also picked up the speed for the last 5 minute interval to a 7.2 min/mile pace (8.2 mph on the treadmill) to increase the challenge.  

I hope you enjoy the workout!

  1. Exactly what I needed today! Did a 2 mile warmup, then this circuit, then .75 miles at 7:30 pace (but no incline like you), then another round of the circuit, then another .75 at 7:30 pace, .5 mile recovery at 8:00 pace, then 1 mile in 7:18.
    So 5 miles total. And the on and off the treadmill pattern kept the 18 month old much more distracted and happy than he has been lately. Thanks!
