EMOM Squat Challenge (10 Minutes)
For anyone who doesn’t recall, an EMOM stands for ‘Every Minute on the Minute.’ You’ll start the exercise at the top of each minute, complete the prescribed reps, and then rest for the remainder of the minute. The faster you finish the reps, the more rest you get before the next round starts. It’s a great way to push intensity while keeping things simple and structured.
In this workout, you’ll perform 20 bodyweight squats every minute for 10 minutes. After completing the 20 squats, use the remaining time in that minute to rest. When the next minute starts, repeat for a total of 10 rounds.
• Goal: Complete 200 squats in 10 minutes, maintaining form and intensity.
• Intensity: Keep a steady pace, aiming to finish the squats in 20-30 seconds to allow for some rest.
• Form Focus: Keep your chest up, core engaged, and make sure to sit back into your heels as you squat down to at parallel. (90 degrees)
• Modifications: If 20 reps become too challenging, reduce to 15 reps per minute or perform an easier variation (e.g., half squats).
This will test your endurance and leg strength while keeping your heart rate elevated!
