2016-2017 NOV OS Core Week 2

Hey everyone! Week 2 Core is ON! Your body should be beginning to adapt. You have repetition frames from week 1 to work from as baselines. When executing corework this week use your exercise repetitions from last week to provide you with goals for the week. For each exercise you are NOT to go to failure, but rather a tick above last week's numbers. Also remember you can take breaks between sets but not too long. Total workout 15-20 min.

Week 2 Workout:

Plank- 3 x Front plank
Cords- 1 x Catch
1 x Straight arm
1 x Catch
Push-ups: 1x Standard
1x Military
1x Standard

Go get it Team!!

  • I'm going to try to get the Mondays in, but I'm also doing a "Yoga for Athletes" class on Mondays, so we'll see how it goes. Got my full info in the sheet for today and for last week. I'll definitely get the Fridays in, but the Mondays will be a WIP...
  • WOW, this is fun!!! image
    I got my Cordz things on sunday. So i did the following:
    Planks - 45 Seconds each for a total of 2:15
    Straight arm and Catches - 10 each set. (by the way, i got the green cords... Why? i have no clue.
    Push ups - 8 each -for all three sets. Military pushups are fun?!?! maybe.
  • Oh, i did lower numbers than last time because i did not want to be sore for 5 days after.
  • The soreness from last week has subsided, so was able to get the 'tick above last week' theme for the Monday core wko.

    Planks still suck.   1:26, 1:15, 1:01  Total 3:42

    Cordz     60 x 3  = 180

    Push-ups     22 std,  8 military (uggh),  20 std  = 50 

    I like to take my weekly weight after a workout, so I will get that done after Tuesday morning pain.

  • Did Monday and Tuesday yesterday as I'm traveling today

    Planks 1:15/1:20/1:25
    Push ups 16/7/15
    Cordz 40/25/45. I have the green as well and they seem perfect. In a few weeks I'll be up to 70.
  • I repeated week one's routine as I worked it into a short window of family time and checking out of our hotel.

    Planks 1:00, 1:00 I agree Ed, they still suck
    PU 25, 25
    Cords 35, 30
  • Good core today:

    Planks: 3 x 1:30, upped time by 0:15 for each. Seeing progress as these are getting easier.
    Pushups: 20 standard, 18 military, 15 regular. The military ones took me out!
    Cords: 30, 25, 25
  • Core wk 2 in the books. Planks 3x 105. Cordz 3x 35 pushups 12 7 12. It all still sucks but it think it's working for me.
  • Did the Friday core work out yesterday.  I was traveling and am not as hard core as Stephanie, so I did not have my cords.  I did 3 X 1:40 planks and 3 X 15 push-ups.  My 70 year old dad then got down and ripped off 20 push-ups no problem.  He had not done them in years and says he will 20 per day from now on.  He inspired me to get better at push ups!

  • Finally did Friday's work this morning. On the core tracker, but 4' total plank (90/90/60), 85 total pushups (30/25/30), and 120 cords (40 x 3). We'll see if I'm able to go again tomorrow evening...
