Some High Intensity Exercises

Strength and endurance training becomes synonymous with some of the high intensity body work out. Here are described some of the most common exercises that is done for high intensity working regime. One can do it in circuit training in set repetitions and can combine with other out door or indoor work out. A regular session in this has 10-15 sets with 8-10 set repetitions on a whole. One can choose from the type of exercise that one wishes to do. One can choose from 4-5 exercises and can do it in 3 sets with 8-10 repetitive sessions. Here are some of the most common exercises:-

Jumping- One of the most common and easiest exercises is definitely jumping. One can start with simple slow running and can do the landing on alternate feet, with each stride try to attain more height and distance. One repetition consists for each right and left feet thump.

Bounding- For this mark a small patch with series of obstacles or with help of cones. Set them approximately 3 feet apart and fashion them in a straight line. The number of obstacles is directly proportional to the number of repetitions. One can begin the first barrier in semi-squat pose. Now try to jump as high as possible. See that you do this by maintaining the length too. Practice the first gauge and see that how far you can set the markers. In each session see that you minimize the ground contact time.

Ricochets- To do this, spot box shape on the ground. Each square must be 2 feet in square. Now by keeping the feet together, begin with one corner of the box, perform small jumps, jumping from one corner to the other corner in a random mode. In this kind of exercise more emphasis is laid on the speed along with the movement of leg in each tread.

Lateral jumps- This is believed to be more advanced intensity exercise. See that the sets are kept to 3-6 on whole. Take the obstacle in form of cone, bench or even a box of 30 cm high. By keeping the feet with hip distance apart try to jump sideways. Try to jump as high as possible and try to reach back in the starting position. See that ground contact is minimal.

Depth jumps- in this make use of chair, box or bench of 30 cm high. Try to step of the bench, do not jump off it. As soon as you land try to explode the body in vertical manner. See the contact to the ground is minimal; avoid deep squatting when you land or before you leap. See that the sets are kept to 3-6 on whole.
