The Cardio Meltdown routines feature 12 moves, in 6 combinations.
30 DAY BREAKAWAY AND LIIFT4 HYBRID CALENDAR FULL
I’ll map out the first ten days below and then make some general comments about the way the routines progress each week.ĭay 1: Cardio Meltdown 1: Yes, even after finishing a full round of MM100, this first workout was still difficult. Near the end of the calendar, some earlier LIIFT4 routines have to be repeated because that program is 8 weeks, not 10, and the calendar is a 10 week calendar (or 10 times 10 workouts, rather). I can also attest that LIIFT4’s lifting routines are more difficult than those three MM100 workouts that are omitted. This calendar cuts Upbeat and Downbeat Strength, as well as Meltcon, presumably because they’d be redundant when combined with LIIFT4’s routines. The calendar includes 7 of the 10 original MM100 workout types: Cardio Meltdown, Total Body Badass, Freestyle Flow, Lit Cardio, Fight Club, Core Inferno, and Re-Vibe. Program Format: This program includes all four weekly LIIFT 4 workouts and a selection of MM100 workouts. You may want to double on some days or add another activity like running or biking. If you are in very good shape, you will still definitely be sufficiently challenged, though. I can see these workouts being frustrating for a beginner, but I guess you have to start somewhere. However, as with all programs, both Joel and Jericho make use of modifiers and even the non-modifiers in each workout take modifications sometimes. Intensity level: Both programs are listed as intermediate to advanced on Beachbody on Demand, and I’d agree with that, particularly if you’re trying to do all the moves at the pace and number of reps the trainers intend. You’ll definitely need to have a very full bottle of water nearby, too.
A mat is required for almost every day - every LIIFT 4 routine has core at the end, and I’d say just about all MM100 routines use a mat besides cardio. works for both programs, though there are a couple moves here and there that I could probably go heavier on if I had the resources. For the most part, my range of dumbbells 3-15 lbs. There are some moves in MM100 for which I use my lightest weights - 3 lbs. Program requirements: Both programs on their own require only dumbbells and a mat. Then I’ll get into my general review of pros and cons at the bottom. I will discuss what you need to complete the program and what each type of workout looks like. Okay, now that my complaints are out of the way, let’s focus on the logistics of this program. Shut up, Joel! Also, if you have done his workouts and agree with me, check out this link because it’s amazing Look, I get that the man obviously works out for a living, but it’s not good for morale to have him walking around while I’m doing triple bears, or, God forbid, twisted mountain climbers. Like, seriously, it was annoying the first time I did the program, but it’s really pretty insufferable, especially when combined with his stupid jokes.
There are even twisted mountain climbers in LIIFT4, and I can’t decide: are they worse or just as bad or slightly better than normal ones? Either way, mountain climbers suck. This is the HIIT Cardio bane of my existence. With weights, without weights, for 30 seconds, for a minute. For the love of God, these two trainers love them some flutter kicks. We’re talking wide, regular, triceps, plyo. The calendar does not include one of my faves from MM100 - Meltcon - so I did that one a couple times as a bonus for myself.īefore we get into the breakdown of the program and my results, let me just say that this program, because of the nature of the workout types included on this calendar, has FAR too much of the following:
30 DAY BREAKAWAY AND LIIFT4 HYBRID CALENDAR PLUS
Therefore, I was really missing the activity and the calorie burn, plus I’m eating much less healthily (stress, I guess), so I often doubled workouts or added some MM100 workouts that were not on the calendar. I’m a high school teacher who, in addition to working out most days, stays very active during my school day. So, not long after I started this calendar, we were put under the “Stay at Home” advisory for Covid-19. I only took a few genuine rest days over the course of this program because quarantine.
I completed every workout on the calendar and added some extras here and there. I started this calendar on Monday, March 2, with Cardio Meltdown 1, and finished on Saturday, May 30, with Melt Mix 100. The latter is a four-day-per-week program, so it is easily combined with another program like MM100. This is a 100-ish workout calendar that combines many of the workouts from MM100 with basically all of the LIIFT 4 routines. I finished my first round of Morning Meltdown 100 in late February, and with some time to wait before the release of Barre Blend, I decided to try the MM100/LIIFT 4 hybrid calendar.
