How to Do the 25 Repetition Roulette Workout

A quick workout energizes the body, improves muscle tone and raises the heart rate. Repetition roulette is the name of a workout that consists of jumps and lunges that require and provide a quick burst of energy, working the entire body in the process. A pair of tennis shoes and a hard floor will provide the best traction for the 25 Repetition Roulette workout.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Things You’ll Need:

• Beanbag

1. Crouch down with toes touching the floor, knees bent and palms touching the ground. Your arms should be to the side and your chest should be touching the top of your knees. A beanbag about one foot in front of you is necessary for Step 4 through the rest of the workout.
2. Perform a burpee by kicking the legs back behind you into a plank position, coming back to step 1 position and then standing up. Ensure the stomach is tight when you kick your legs out and back in to retain proper form. You should be standing upright at the end of step 2.
3. Jump into the air with your arms raised above your head and land squarely on both feet. This stretch jump should immediately follow the burpee in a smooth continuous movement.
4. Bend the knees as you come down from the jump in step 3 and pick up the beanbag with both hands. The size of the beanbag is determined by your preference and fitness level.
5. Lift the beanbag above the head as you stand up straight, stretching out the body.
6. Lunge forward with the right leg as you bend down to the floor. This means the right leg is out in front, the foot is flat on the ground, the knee is level with the chest, the bent left leg is behind you with the foot pointing upward and toes are touching the ground. The beanbag should still be above your head.
7. Put the beanbag on the floor before returning to step 1 position and repeating the entire sequence 25 times as fast as you can.
