Remember if you don't have the right equipments, adapt. Today the programme includes weighted squats, although a barbell is preferred if you don't have one then try holding dumbbells by your side.

Followed by 1000m row or run
Record time and load to monitor progress.
Focus on full range of motion with both exercises, the only way to monitor your own progress is to complete each rep completely each time.

Good morning, if it's not something that you do regularly there are fewer exercises better than sprinting what ever your goals. Fat burning, muscle power, or improved fitness, sprinting ticks all of these boxes like no other activity.
Try this:
100m Sprint - 60 seconds rest- repeat x 4
200m Sprint- 2 mins rest- repeat x 4
400m sprint 3 mins rest repeat x 4
Good morning, the wet week seems to be continuing... what a perfect opportunity to hibernate in the gym. Many people visit the gym and spend the time thinking about how they will look to others, am I lifting enough weight? Am I doing the right exercises? As a result we can often end up lifting the heaviest weight we can lift and only moving through half the full range of motion.
Today I want you to complete 5 set of these 3 simple exercises, start light and progress to the heaviest weight you can manage with proper form. Forget any weight you have previously lifted just complete a full range of motion.
Barbell Squats 10
Barbell Bench Press 10
Seat Row 10
Record Total load
