"10 to 100" Workout

We did a workout in class this week at the Arboretum and North Austin Locations called "10 to 100."  Sounds awesome, right?  Well, it is.

Here's the deal (and OF COURSE you can "steal" these workouts and do them at home on your own)..... pick 10 exercises of your choice.  Write them down on pieces of paper or notecards (split them in half to save paper!).  Take the cards, shuffles them and pick the cards one by one.  The first exercise you pick you will do 10 reps, the second card you picks means you will do 20 reps of that exercise, the third card 30 and so on..... alllllllll the way up to 100.  Yes, 100.  You may or may not regret picking burpees as one of your exercises but then again, I doubt any of you actually CHOOSE to do burpees unless forced to somehow.  As far as your exercises, I suggest mixing it up......legs, arms, cardio, core, etc

Need a few ideas?  Watch our the video on the homepage!

boot camp hike push ups.AVI


About once per month, we host a group hike at one of the local Austin trails. It's fun to get out, meet people from other camps and enjoy nature. You can bring your dogs (and friends but they can be unleashed). As a rule, everyone on the hike has to shout out "BOOT CAMP!" At that time, there person who stopped the group gets to pick an exercise for everyone to do. Here is a video of some push ups we did along the way. Good times! Join us on our next hike!

Follow Boot Camp U on Facebook and Twitter (BootCampUAustin) to get the updates on when the next hikes will be!
