We did a SHRED and PR'd but we didn't have the incline set right on our treadmills! Usually we wouldn't do the same workouts so close to each other but ash and I were crank so we decided to go fuck this one up good and do it on even playing field (or 3% incline on a treadmill)
Last week we started at 0% incline and we needed to set it at 3% to start with, it actually matters a whole lot! The first time we did it our time was 43 minutes and 20 seconds. The second time we did it in 31 minutes but had the incline wrong. The third time (today) we did it we did it in 35 minutes!!! Ash also puked!!! (so proud of her) We also didn't do the push ups and the sit to stands because we got through 2 miles before we reached those exercises!
SO HERE IT IS AGAIN!!! TAKE 2!!!!
Each person starts on a treadmill with the incline set at 3.0. You each will need to run a total of 2 miles at the same time, keeping your paces the same. If one gets tired and needs to pull back, the other person must do so too. Here's the fun part- every 2 minutes you have to raise the incline by 1.0. So, at 2 minutes into the run, you're raising it to 4.0, at 4 minutes you raise to 5.0, and so on. Obviously the lower the incline, the easier it is, so the incentive is to cover as much ground at the beginning as you can. Now, here's the even more fun part. Every 2 minutes and 25 seconds, you push pause on the treadmill, hop off and both complete a team task. The task is done one at a time, meaning when I'm working, Tyler is resting. As I said, you can divide up the work however you want, you just have to make sure at least one person is moving at all times. Both can't rest at once! As soon as you complete the task, get back on those treadmills and get towards that 2 mile mark!!
Here are the tasks to be completed, in order:
@ 2:17 - 50 inverted burpee
@ 5:41 - 60 dumb bell front sq. 25lbs for the ladies & 35 for dudes.
@9:57 - 70 pullups
@ 12:43 80 Kettle Bell swing 40 lbs for chicks & 50 lbs for dicks
@ 15:39 90 pushups
@ trainers challenge pace 100 sit to stands
