Exercise Step Stool
Would this exercise routine work?
If I run in the woods behind my house for fifteen to twenty minutes a day. After wards doing 25 jumping jacks then “strength training”.
Doing this 3-6 days a week, will this help me any? Also I will be changing the direction I go in the woods for a change up of the hills. I will more than likely follow the strength training by something fun such as wii fit, my trampoline, shooting hoops, or even skip some days and bike a few miles.
My training would go;
For legs:
15 step ups on each leg onto a stool about 2 1/2 feet high
15 lunges on each leg
For abs:
25 crunches
25 bicycles each
25 “touch your toes”
25 “ball ups”
For arms:
15 pushups
For butt:
25 leg raises each
BTW ; I’m fourteen years young, 130 pounds and about 5’7. Active in sports (basketball, track, softball..) My track season just ended.
ALL ADVICE AND EXERCISE/DIET PLAN ARE ACCEPTED AND APPRECIATED!

The bottom line is that your body will only grow if it is stressed. I have no idea of what kind of condition you are in and so I cannot determine if the above will help you or just keep you where you are.
If you are running, try running sprints- like 100 yds and then walk 200 yds, then sprint 100 again. This “interval” training will help you with both endurance AND explosive speed. You can mix it up where you do sprints once in a week and your described run the rest of the time, then twice next week, etc.
As for push ups and such- push yourself to do the most you can possibly do. If you do 14 push ups and collapse on #15, then try for 15 next time. Always try to add one more to your number and push to failure.
Also, don’t overdo it. If you push yourself VERY hard one day, take the next day, or even two, off.
When you push yourself as hard as possible, you are causing damage to your muscles. Your body needs enough rest and nutrition to rebuild and heal- this makes you stronger. If you do’t get enough rest and nutrition then you will “over train” and be worse off than before.
Also, it is okay to work your legs one day (run, stool steps, lunges) and then work your arms the next day WITHOUT working your legs at all. Your legs are resting during your arm work out and so it counts as a rest day between work outs.
Your abs can be worked every day if you want although you will see better results if you rest them too. Do’t forget that you are working your abs while you run.
Push hard, get rest, eat right and you’ll kick any 16 year old boy’s butt.
