Cardio Challenge: Goal: 30 participants and 180 points
Alright, just as Coach Gary said during the Spring Race, it’s only a rehersal. Time to put our game face on and let’s get psyched for the Long Beach race! In keeping with the spirit, let’s focus on this week’s Cardio Challenge with a goal of 30 Guppies particpating and 180 cardio points total. Here’s how you can earn points:
Per day, earn:
1 point for 12-19 min cardio
2 points for 20+ min cardio
1 point for 20+ reps of tricep exercises (chair dips, regular dips, weight exercises for triceps)
3 points for attending Wednesday practice
3 points for doing a gold boat challenge (see below)
Rebecca also has a video that you can watch on proper technique for chair dips see:

(make sure you have sound, because he also shows the wrong way to do them)
And let’s not forget the Gold boat challenges:
- 3 mile run
- pushups in ‘Tabata’ intervals: max reps in 20 sec, rest 10 sec, repeat for 8 rounds, score only the LOWEST round.
Good luck Guppies!!
