Wednesday May 26th- Endurance building

Cardio and Climbing!!!

One-hour cardio - endurance is what we are going for today! So slow and steady can work but try to push yourself somewhat. The main thing is distance and length of the workout. Go outside if you can :)

Climbing - endurance on the wall- top rope over and over without rest or traverse as long as you can without falling off. You can do some bouldering too but remember today's goal is endurance building

Tuesday May 25th- Strength Day!!!

Today is a strength endurance day which means the workout should be strength-focused but held for a relatively long period of time.

For example if you are lifting in the gym work each muscle group at a weight about 75-80% of your max and do 4 sets of 8-12 reps. Remember this is heavy relative to the number of reps you have to so. Also only allow 20 seconds of rest between sets.
