Integrated Circuit Training.  I don’t mind admitting that for most of the past 6 days I’d been dreading this workout.  My first ICT workout almost made me throw the contents of my stomach all over the bathroom walls.

Having said that I’d started to notice a general feeling of well being, more agility and mobility.  A bit of a spring in my step and I started the ICT workout with passion.  Here it is:

  • Burpees: 60 secs
  • Chinnies: 60 secs
  • Hindu Push Ups: 60 secs
  • Lunges: 60 secs
  • Star Jumps (aka. Jumping Jacks): 60 secs
  • Rest: 60 secs

All of this was repeated 3 times.

The great thing is that although my burpees degenerated into squat thrusts and my arms were packing up I wanted keep going!!  It really pumped me up and I can see a time when these ICT workouts will be nothing more than a warm up!

So after all that I did 60 secs of shadow sparring.

NOTE: Unfortunately I didn’t do myself any favours by having a curry 3hrs before the workout.  I thoguht 3hrs would be enough but it wasn’t. A lthough I resisted being sick my stomach was seriously displeased.  Heartburn, nausea and pain lasted a good 2hrs afterwards.  Avoid food for at least 4-5hrs before a workout
