Big Five ‘55’ Workout
The protocol is that you would do 10 reps of each exercise, then go back to the top of the list and do 9 reps of each, then 8….etc…until 1 rep. From 5 reps onwards you would then look to complete more difficult variations of the Burpee or Pushup. [More difficult version of the burpee is with a pushup and a jump
In all, 55 reps of each exercise is completed. The aim is steady consistent work, take rest as and when required, however you are working against the clock…i.e. time yourself doing the workout…..then you can challenge yourself several weeks / months later, and see if you can beat your time.
