The combination of heavy lifting with the bench press and high-intensity interval training with the Winnie the Pooh workout provides a well-rounded approach to improving overall strength, conditioning, and endurance.
Muscle Groups:
- Chest, shoulders, and triceps: The bench press is a compound exercise that targets these muscle groups and helps to build maximum strength and power.
- Legs: Box jumps and goblet squats work the lower body, targeting the quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes.
- Full body: Kettlebell swings and burpees engage multiple muscle groups throughout the body, including the core, back, shoulders, and legs.
This workout plan is designed to test your strength and endurance. Part A focuses on finding your 1-rep max on bench press, which is an important measure of upper body strength. Part B is a challenging full-body workout that targets multiple muscle groups, including the legs, glutes, chest, back, and arms. The AMRAP format ensures that you push yourself to complete as many rounds as possible in the allotted time, improving your cardiovascular endurance and muscular endurance.
