Happy MONSTER Monday!!! The workout below is pretty awesome. I did it on Saturday and I was SORE yesterday!
The KEY with all the Monster Monday Workouts is this: you must complete things with the amount of weight/resistance that’s right for you. The goal is to be able to finish all the prescribed reps or time without breaking form. You should always feel like you’re working at an 8 out of 10 difficulty level. If you feel like you’re working at a 4 or 5, GRAB HEAVIER WEIGHTS!!!!!! Ladies, I’m especially talking to you here!!!! Do NOT be afraid of lifting heavier weights, safely!!!!
Take your time with the 2 primary lifts. Be sure that you’re allowing yourself 60-90 seconds between sets so that you get enough recovery. Then for the Metabolic Conditioning, set your timer for 12 minutes and GET IT DONE! Again, if you are not wiped out by the end, you’ve gotta lift heavier, move faster and make it count!!!
TRY it out, and post a comment below, or on Facebook with #MonsterMonday and let me know how you did.
