Week six and I’m already half way through my Freeletics training programme. I’m loving it so far, I feel stronger, fitter and more confident. I’m interested to see how I feel in another six weeks.
This week started off with a standard version of Aphrodite. You can see the workout of Aphrodite from week one. Next was a strength workout called Hera, this involved:
Hera (Strength)
Round 1 of 5
- 40 High Jumps
- 60 Second Rest
- 400m Run
- 60 Second Rest
Round 2 of 5
- 40 High Jumps
- 60 Second Rest
- 400m Run
- 60 Second Rest
Round 3 of 5
- 40 High Jumps
- 60 Second Rest
- 400m Run
- 60 Second Rest
Round 4 of 5
- 40 High Jumps
- 60 Second Rest
- 400m Run
- 60 Second Rest
Round 5 of 5
- 40 High Jumps
- 60 Second Rest
- 400m Run
Hera was tough, I found the high jumps a challenge at first, so I did batches of ten jumps and took a little rest in between. I also did my running around the block as it worked out at a little over 400m. My final workout of the week was a standard version of 2/10 Gaia, this involved:
2/10 Gaia (Standard)
Round 1 of 2
- 40 Jumping Jacks
- 30 Jumps
- 20 Climbers
- 10 Standups
Round 2 of 2
- 40 Jumping Jacks
- 30 Jumps
- 20 Climbers
- 10 Standups
Gaia was ok and it good to finish the week doing only two sets of a ten set workout. The Standups were really tough and I struggled to do these all in one motion. I therefore decided to do ten situps followed by ten jumps, I guess it’s the same thing just slower!
I’d found this week challenging and I’ve been mentioning Freeletics to a few of my friends. One of them wanted to come over and try a workout with me which I thought was a great idea. Why I chose the standard version of Venus again is beyond me. I guess I wanted my mate to see how tough it was! So I managed to complete four workouts in week six which I was over the moon about.
