Requiring zero equipment, the circuit consists of five stations, each targeting one of the key physical areas jockeys use in horse racing, through exercises such as jumping lunges, flutter kicks, burpees and single‐leg deadlifts.
The workout has been built to be time effective and allow people to conduct it in their own home without reliance on gym equipment. This is a fun and innovative workout that everyone can take part in.
Whether simply looking to maintain a basic level of activity or to improve specific muscle groups, Jockey Fit is suitable for everybody and can be scaled up or down according to fitness levels.
In order to compete at the highest level jockeys are required to be supremely fit, and each individual is required to pass a standardised fitness test before getting their licence. As part of the current test the jockey must hold a plank for two minutes 47 seconds and achieve level 13 in the bleep test – the equivalent to 2.62km at 14.5km/h.
