WORKOUT<br />

WORKOUT #1<br />

Find a park and start<br />

running. After running for<br />

1K, do the following<br />

exercises in order, without<br />

resting between moves.<br />

Repeat until you’ve<br />

completed 30 minutes<br />

of running<br />

A<br />

B<br />

10 X PUSH-UPS<br />

Lie face-down on the floor with your<br />

toes tucked under, hands level with<br />

your shoulders but slightly wider than<br />

shoulder-width apart, fingers pointing<br />

forwards and palms down (A).<br />

Engage your core and push your<br />

chest off the floor until you’re in a<br />

high plank position (B). Bend your<br />

elbows to lower your body back<br />

down to the ground until your chest<br />

nearly touches it; your elbows<br />

shouldn’t flare out. Pause; repeat.<br />

15 X SQUATS<br />

Stand with your feet hip-width<br />

apart with your hands together in<br />

front of your chest. Lower your body<br />

to a 90° angle by bending at your<br />

knees and pushing your bottom<br />

back. Pause, then slowly return<br />

to standing.<br />

20 X SIT-UPS<br />

Lie on your back on the ground and<br />

place your fingertips by your ears. Place<br />

your feet on the ground with your knees<br />

bent (A). Exhale and lift your upper body<br />

by about 45°, pulling your deep abs in<br />

towards your spine (B). Pause, then<br />

return to the starting position.<br />
