Hey, rockstar, you are going to crush this workout! However, I want to hear from you. So send me a text and let me know how it went!
Welcome to the final workout of our Back2Basics 6-week program! YOU are a SUPERSTAR! Today is a celebration of your hard work for the final 6 weeks so let's do it with a 1-mile baseline!
Baseline Details:
- Dynamic Stretches: Use video in FS
- Warm-Up: Start with a 5-minute walk to get those muscles loose.
- Test: You’ll have 20 minutes to complete a one-mile run. Record your time! If you finish early, skip to cool down; if you haven't hit your one mile at 20 minutes, record the distance completed during that time.
- Cool-Down: Finish with a 5-minute walk to let your body relax and recover.
- Static Stretches: Use video in FS
Tips for a Smart Baseline Test:
- Be Honest: This baseline is for you. Be true to your current fitness level so we can measure your progress accurately.
- Treadmill Users: Set your treadmill to a 1% incline. This simulates outdoor conditions and gives a more accurate reading of your performance.
- Outdoor Runners: Choose a route as straight and flat as possible. This will help you get a consistent and accurate time.
- Mental Notes: Pay attention to your route, whether on a treadmill or outdoors. At the end of the program, we'll repeat this test under the same conditions to see your improvement.
