Superset Pyramid Time Challenge Workout (Week 4)

Four down, one week to go! Of the superset pyramids we’ve done this month, today’s went by the quickest for me. It would make for a great workout finisher or is the perfect option on those days you “don’t have time” to workout.

Superset Pyramid Time Challenge Workout (Week 4)

Equipment I Used

For this workout, you’ll have two exercises that you’ll go through in a pyramid structure. You’ll do 10 reps of each, then 9 reps, then 8, 7 … finishing with 1 rep of each. The goal is to complete the pyramid of reps as fast as you can without sacrificing proper form. In the video, I go over ways to modify the two exercises to make it suitable for all levels. Be sure to warm up beforehand.

Forearm Plank to Pike to Reptile Crunch Slides | Start in a forearm plank with feet on sliders. Keeping your legs straight, pike your hips up into the air as high as you can, sliding your body into an upside-down “v” shape. Return your hips back down to plank position and then do a reptile crunch to each side, sliding your right knee in towards your right triceps and then left knee into left triceps. That’s one rep.

Jump Lunges (each set = 1 rep) | Start in a split-stance lunge position with one foot in front and the ball of the other foot planted behind you. Front knee is at a 90-degree bend with knee stacked over heel. Jump up, switching feet in midair and landing back in a split-stance lunge with the other foot in front. Repeat back to starting position. That’s one rep.

WEARING | Lululemon leggings (old but you can shop their current selection or check out these adidas leggings in a very similar shade of purple) // Puppies Make Me Happy tank (they have a Rescue Puppies collection that supports animal shelters!) // Adidas neo sneakers // Cory Vines sports bra

PSA

Every time I wear the above Lululemon leggings on the blog, I get questions about them and I always have to give the bad news that they’re old and no longer carried by Lulu. Well I just saw that Lululemon brought them back by popular demand!! I think I’m going to get another pair in the blue because they really are the best. Super high waist, supportive material, and the look is just so cool.
