Beyond the Veil: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

The most basic exercise we do is cycling and running but doing treadmill and cycling daily for one hour can become tedious and a monotonous. So we should change it a bit and I have pinned it down.

Treadmill – Running

Step 1: Sprint (45 seconds)
Step 2: Recover (15 sec)
Step 3: Repeat steps 1-2 three times
Step 4: 20-minute run at half speed
Step 5: Repeat steps 1-2 four times at your fastest heart-exploding, lung-busting speed.

Total time: 28 minutes
Cycling

Step 1: Sprint at low resistance (30 sec)
Step 2: Recover (60 sec)
Step 3: Sprint at high resistance (30 sec)
Step 4: Recover at low resistance (60 sec)
Step 5: Repeat steps 1-4 nine times

Total time: 30 minutes
Fight the Flab

Step 1: Squats (45 sec)
Step 2: Squat jumps (15 sec)

Step 4: Plank (60 sec)
