Benchmark A Better You: Week 2 Strength Workouts

Welcome to the second week of our Benchmark a Better You strength challenge. Hopefully by now you’ve successfully carried out the three benchmark tests to get started and see where you’re at with your balance, core, and mobility—and now you’re pumped to get into the week two workouts. Strength and conditioning coach Kevin Purvis has designed these five weeks of workouts so that by the time you reach the final week (right before New Year’s), you’ll have improved across all three areas when you repeat the benchmark tests. 

The Week 2 workout is shown below and ideally you’ll repeat this workout three times over the week. There are demonstration videos for each exercise. Exercises that are grouped together should be performed as a circuit for the prescribed number of rounds.
