October Barbell Challenge
Week 2 Workouts & Schedule
Below is the schedule and the workouts for this week. If you are just now joining us in this challenge…. check out this post for the details on what, how, why, when.
Remember that you can sub out the barbell and use dumbbells or kettlebells instead. Have fun with it!
Week #2 Workout Schedule:
October 6th {Monday}: Lower Body Routine
October 7th {Tuesday}: Upper Body Routine
October 8th {Wednesday}: Cardio Workout
October 9th {Thursday}: Lower Body Routine
October 10th {Friday}: Cardio or Optional Rest Day

Week #2 Workout Routines:
In order to build a foundation and measure our progress, we are going to stick with the Lower & Upper Body Routines we did last week. These two routines are below.
You can run on the treadmill or outside if you’d like to do that instead of the above HIIT Cardio routine on the days designated as cardio workout days. If you choose to do your own cardio routine, try to do an interval run instead of steady-state cardio. For example, after warming up for five minutes, run at your max pace for 1 minute and then a moderate recovery pace for 2 minutes. You would repeat these two intervals for 10 rounds, or a total of 30 minutes. You can run outdoors, on the treadmill or use an elliptical, rower, stair stepper, spin bike, or arc trainer for your cardio workout if you’d like.
Good Luck #BarbellBabes!
