ZWOW #3 - For Strong Legs - New & Improved!

Fitness | December 11, 2014

Hi everyone,

I have improved another ZWOW and instead of the 18 minutes routine, we’re doing almost 30 minutes of an insane pyramid that focuses mainly on your legs. I have to warn you, that I had a serious post workout muscle soreness in my thighs which lasted 2 days. I had to do deep tissue massage with that red foam roller that you can see in my videos, and I drank like 5 liters of ginger tea. It was brutal. I looked like I crapped my pants each time I tried to get up or sit down on a chair. That’s how much it hurt. I can’t stress that enough how important is to move even when you’re sore. You have to increase the blood flow through the sore muscles, because they need a lot of oxygen and nutrients, which only blood can deliver. The more you’re moving, and massaging the area, the faster you’ll recover.

 

Warm Up Routine

Workout Breakdown:

1. Jump Lunge to Jump Squat to Jump Lunge and back  (don’t hate me this one is tough)

2. Weighted one leg elevated lunge to Forward Lunge

3. Push Up/ Bird Dog / Superman

4. Skater Jump Up (2 jumps count as 1 rep)

    HOW are you guys able to do this workout in 25 minutes or under?? Not taking breaks in between the exercises, or doing them very quickly? Took me 30 minutes, and I honestly don’t think that even with “rushing” I could have gone below 25 min. You guys are badass!

    Awesome job and good luck with your own website. I’ve been with you before BR was BR. Can’t spend $ now but eventually I will. Thanks for freebees.

    I used 8 lbs and it took me 26:08. The hardest one for me was the push up because every time I went on the floor I just wanted to stay there. I am going to be very sore tomorrow!

    Just finished this as I was not able to do it last week and it looked really challenging so I had to give it a try 🙂 I did it in 24:36 🙂 My only “problem” is my puppy, who want to play as soon as I touch the floor 😀 so he made the push ups extra challenging as I had him all over me haha no need for shower though as he took care of it as well haha

        I always try to keep him downstairs with my hubby but I think he has a sensor or something and as soon as I start push-ups or anything on the floor, he is straight there lol
