As my good friend Clyde once said to me; "What's the point in having a Ferrari body if you've got a Lada engine under the bonnet?" We must always be fit on the inside too, instead of just looking fit on the outside! Maintain the cardio respiratory system, connective tissue/joints and digestive tract to name but three of the elements.

Today's Workouts puts the cardio respiratory system under a little stress whilst also inducing a little muscular fatigue:

• Warm Up with a brisk jog/run


• Find a hill that takes at least five mins of continuous running or power walking to reach the top.


• Work hard and try to reach the top as fast as you can. Rest if needed but work against yourself and the clock.


• Walk/jog down recover and go again. Try and beat your first time.


• Cool Down with a steady jog for 15 mins

Or if running is not an option:

• Warm Up total body


• 1 min squats as many as possible.


• 1 min rest


• 1 min squats as many as possible.


• Record times then repeat with KB swings, Burpees and Push Ups.


• Cool Down thoroughly.
