Month II Week One Schedule A

Hello Fit Chicks!! Month one is done now it's time to move on to month two! I decided to do it a little different this time.  I decided to  post it week by week, that way it'll be easier to follow. If you don't know how to perform these exercises please click the links provided in the tables.  If it's not easier to follow let me know, I'll post it the previous way. 

Schedule A focuses on strength. You will be doing cardio, but not a whole lot. So if you want to focus on cardio more then weight training I suggest you do Schedule B that schedule really focuses on HIIT, cardio, and body weight exercises.
Here's the first week! If you are new to the challenge click here to read the introduction to the challenge. It has lots of info about this challenge like: what equipment you need, weight lifting safety, requirements for the challenge, and if you want you can just start at month one. :) 

Here's the first week schedule to month II.

Back and Shoulders  At homers
This routine is to be done in circuit format. You will do these exercises one after anothe you will take a small break at the end of each circuit. I suggest no more than 2 minutes . You’ll be performing this routine for a total of 4 circuit, 16 reps for each exercise because this is a high rep high intensity  routine you  will need light weights. Before you perform this routine please warm up your body by doing 50 jumping jacks and 20 arm circles, if you don't know how to do arm circles click here. After the strength training do 20 minutes of hiit, if you have a treadmill in home, do the above tread mill routine. If not click Here for a HIIT routine. :)

Saturday Active Rest

Active rest allows you to physically and psychologically recover from the stresses of training  while still maintaining fitness levels.  Your active-rest activity should be different from the usual type of workout you do, activating different muscles and giving your mind a break, too. If you’re a runner, like I am, Smith suggests trying a swim or just an easy walk with your dog. Light yoga can be a good choice for everyone—unless you do yoga most days, in which case you might try power walking. Other activities that’ll get you moving just the right amount include gardening, doing your errands on foot instead of driving, ice skating, and even cleaning your house vigorously for at least twenty minutes. The most important thing to remember: don’t make it an actual workout. Read more here:http://www.divinecaroline.com/22175/89952-recover-refuel-rejuvenate-active-rest
