Training Circuits
I'm not preparing for cycling in the spring so I have not been
riding the trainer at all this winter. But what I have been
doing is more of an all around routine of repeated circuits
for general fitness and conditioning. Here's one circuit:
- 8 squats. These are body weight done fairly quickly. Might bump these up to 10 soon.
- 5 push ups. Done fairly quickly.
- 15 jumping jacks. Foot work and a little aerobic space in the circuit is good.
- 4 modified curls. This is a form of ab curl. raise your back off the floor a couple of inches and hold for about 4 seconds.
- 2 side bridges (2 on left, 2 on right that is). Hold for 10 seconds.
- 15 seated rows using blue resistance band. Pull back to sides of chest quickly, release slowly.
Repeat this circuit 4 to 6 times. I will try to get in 4 to 5 of these workouts per week. As the temperature warms up I will do more running at lunch and add bicycle commuting. My primary goal this year will be to do a 5k under 22 minutes.
