16-MIN EMOM WORKOUT
ALL LEVELS / EMOM workout / 16 minutes
Equipment: Med ball, dumbbells, mat & bench
In case you don’t know, EMOM is a type of interval training and stands for “every minute on the minute”. This means that you will perform a specified amount of repetitions of an exercise at the start of one minute and rest during the time you have left within the same minute. Then, at the start of the next minute, you’ll move to another exercise and do the same.
Today’s workout is provided to you by our personal trainer from EVO Berggasse in Vienna – Judit Stroj. This EMOM targets your whole body and consists of 4 exercises that you should perform for 4 rounds, resulting in a total time of 16 minutes.
- Assault bike
- Kettlebell bent over row
- Russian kettlebell swings
- Lateral burpees over the mat
As your workout progresses, you’ll be more fatigued and feel your resting time slipping away. This turns this session into a great cardio push.
Last but not least: we are counting minutes, so make sure you have a stopwatch.
