21 Day Fix Extreme Workout Descriptions

Today I wanted to discuss the 21 Day Fix Extreme workouts. The schedule of workouts is the same all three weeks. There is no doubles option like the original 21 Day Fix because the workouts are so intense.
This work is for the intermediate person and not for a beginner. This is an extreme workout that will get you in shape quickly. It is also great for those that only have a little weight to lose or just want to tone up their muscles. It is also a great workout for those that are doing some type of competition or want to get in the best shape before a big event like a Spartan run or Tough Mudder.

Some basic equipment you'll need for these workouts is three sets of weights (a light, medium and heavy set) and a resistance band. It is suggested that the resistance band be 15 pounds and be six feet in length to properly do the exercises and get enough resistance.  For the weights it is recommend 3-5 for the light, 8-10 for the medium, and 12-15 for the heavy for women and 8-10 for the light, 15-18 for the medium and 20-25 for the heavy for men. Some workouts you may want a yoga mat for. All the workouts you'll want water and a towel near by. Just like the 21 Day Fix you'll want a great pair of cross trainers to do this workout.

Now let me describe the workouts.

Plyo Fix Extreme uses Light and medium weights. It starts with a warm up and ends with a cool down. It has five rounds with two exercises each round. Each exercise lasts 30 seconds and there is a 30 second break between exercises. Each round repeats.

Upper Fix Extreme uses light and heavy weights and the resistance band. It starts with a warm up and ends with a cool down. It has three  rounds with four exercises in each round. Each exercise lasts 60 seconds and there is a 15 second rest between exercises. Each round repeats.

Pilates Fix Extreme uses the resistance band. A yoga mat is optional.starts with warmup and cool down. It has a similar format to the Pilates Fix in the original  fix in that it has different series that work different parts of the body.

Lower Fix Extreme uses light and medium weights and the resistance band. It starts with a warm up and ends with a cool down. It has four rounds with two exercises each and each round will repeat. The exercises last 60 seconds with 15 second break.

10 minute Hardcore uses a medium weight. The use of a yoga mat is optional. It's format is similar to the original 21 Day Fix.

Cardio Fix Extreme uses light and medium weights. It has four rounds  with two exercises each round. There is a cardio interval in between each round. You also repeat each round. Each exercise is 60 seconds with 10 seconds rest in between. The  cardio intervals  are 30 seconds.

Dirty 30 Extreme uses light and heavy weights. It has three rounds with two exercises each round. Each exercise lasts a minute and there is a 10 second break in between exercises. Each round repeats.

Yoga extreme is similar to the original 21 Day Fix. You can use an optional yoga mat.

If you purchase your 21 Day Fix Extreme through me you get a bonus workout  The Fix Challenge.
For this workout you can use an optional yoga mat. There are thirteen different moves. You do four reps of first move then add on second. You do four rounds of the second, four rounds of the first and keep building until you've done all thirteen. There are no breaks.

There are two additional workouts available for purchase Power Strength Extreme and ABC Extreme. I haven't tried either of these workouts so I cannot tell you what they are like.

Each workout has a modifier that is less intense. Also most of the workouts have different people working at different levels so that you can customize the workout to your particular situation and make it as hard or as easy as you need to for your current fitness level.

I hope this helps you to see if the 21 Day Fix Extreme is right for you. I have another challenge group starting April 6th. I'd love to have you join me. Have a blessed day.
