SanFran Fitness: 20 Minute Intermediate Weighted Bounce Fit Circuit

Wow. I expected something much easier from a workout with “intermediate” in the title. This workout felt advanced to me. This workout is structured interval style: 90 seconds of work followed by 30 seconds of power jumps. No breaks, no rests. Your “recovery” is power jumping. Did I mention you are holding hand weights the entire workout? OMG. This was a tough rebounder workout. My legs are still burning. My arms are okay now but they were protesting and burning out during the workout. Very challenging! I wished for a timer during those 90 second intervals–90 seconds never felt so long!

The warm up for this workout is very short, so I started this workout with a great little 7:48 minute warm up, also by SanFran Fitness. 20 Minute Intermediate Weighted Bounce Fit Circuit is led by Claire Francis. The warm up I started with is led by both Claire and her husband Scott. According to my FitBit, my total workout time was 31:30 minutes (this workout + the warm up) and I was in my peak heart rate zone 13 of those minutes. I burned 268 calories. I got a very intense cardio workout.

20 Minute Intermediate Weighted Bounce Fit Circuit is 23:47 minutes; 40 second intro, 50 second warm up and 2:30 minute stretch. Equipment: rebounder and light hand weights. Claire is using 1kg or 2 pound hand weights. I used 2 pound hand weights.
