My mom is 5'4 and 140 lbs. She wants to loose about 10 lbs in a about 1.5 months. So far I have her doing this Day 1 - Lower Body 20 mins - Elliptical (Low resistance, Higher speed) Squats 10 Reps 10 sec break Squat Thrusts (10) 30 sec Break Squats 10 Reps 10 sec break Squat Thrusts (10) 30 sec Break Squats 10 Reps 10 sec break Squat Thrusts (10) 30 sec Break Squats 10 Reps 10 sec break Squat Thrusts (10) 30 sec Break Lunges 4x10 Light Dumbell Deadlifts 3x10 Elliptical (High resistance Low speed) 5 Mins Dynamic Stretching Day 2 - Cardio Run Jog 2 Miles + five 100 meter Sprints OR Run with the greatest Intensity Possible for 2 mins / 5 times OR Elliptical 60 Mins +20 Burpees two sets Day 3 - Upper body Jog - 1 mile OR Elliptical 30 mins Bench Press 10 reps Pushup 10 reps Bench Press 10 reps Pushups 10 reps Bench press 10 reps push ups - 10 reps Military press 10 reps Military press 10 reps Military press 10 reps Pushpress 10 reps Bicep Curls - 3x10 Tricep Kickbacks - 10x3 Lat Pulldowns 10x3 Bent Over rows 10x3 Trying to incorperate both complex training AND Interval and hiit and LSD training, but if this is wrong, tell me other wise
How old is your mom man? i think if i gave my mom a program with burpees in it, it wouldn't last the week. As good as HIT and complex training is, the one downfall it has for most people is that it's just too hard for them to do. While running on the eliptical isn't the best approach in most cases it's something someone who isn't into training will actually stick with for the entire duration. How is her diet?
You've got one hardcore mother, man. I think I'd have trouble finishing that. How bout jumping rope? That's pretty low-impact and good for HIIT and aerobic work.
does she exercise at all prior to this routine. if not keep it simple, cut out shit out of diet and walk/ jog thirty minutes a day
Shenis 38 years old, and she CAN complete this. I've been doing this with her for 2 weeks now. IF she did stick with it, would this be good for weightloss? she did exersize for about 3 years before this, about a year before. then she quit for a year then she got back into it for 2 months, then I braught her threw this
