Be Well Workout of the Week: The 12-Sprint Challenge
This workout requires some sprinting. And when I say sprinting, I mean move as fast as you — here’s the key — can safely move. So, if you are just starting out in your sprinting game and your sprint is fast walk, then walk as fast as your legs will go. If you are a seasoned runner, then you know your sprinting pace, so push yourself to a fast sprint during these intervals.
Now, that said, the workout is going to go like this: You’ll start with a circuit of five exercises, then complete three 30-second sprints with one minute of rest in between. Make sure your rest is active, so either jog or walk to keep moving between sprints. You’ll complete the entire circuit, sprints included, four times. Ready, set, go!
