Warrior Workout

Here’s a challenge for you! This is a workout we used at our gym and it not only got people sweating, it also promoted a bit of friendly competition and some strategizing.

The Warrior Workout challenge is as follows:

1. Set your timer for 10 minutes.
2. The objective is to score as many points as you can.
3. You earn points by doing as many burpees, push ups and squats as you can during that time.

• Burpees count as 5 points.
• Push ups count as 2 points.
• Squats count as 1 point.

*You will likely need a partner to keep score for you as doing it on your own is difficult.

Notes:

• Burpees may be worth the most points but it is unlikely that you will be able to continue that exercise for the entire 10 minutes non-stop.
• Doing only squats probably won’t tire you as much but you won’t earn as many points.
• Push ups will tire your arms but will give your legs a break.

Try different strategies to help you to earn more points each time you do it, or make it a competition with a partner(s).

Enjoy!
