RESCENE‘s trainee workout routine is going viral after the members revealed just how intense their weight-loss training was before debut.
The group recently shared stories from their trainee days through various content, opening up about the strict fitness routines they followed while preparing to become idols. While the members also spoke about dieting and weigh-ins, their workout routine quickly caught fans’ attention.
The members explained that dance practice alone wasn’t enough to help them lose weight. Because they spent hours practicing choreography every day, their bodies eventually adapted to the movement. To continue burning fat, they had to complete a separate high-intensity circuit workout.
One set of the routine included 30 jumping burpees, 20 twist planks, 20 crunches, 20 push-ups with shoulder taps, 30 jumping jacks, 20 lunges, and 20 jump squats.
The most shocking part is that trainees were expected to complete eight sets of the routine every day.
That meant doing:
- 240 burpees
- 240 jumping jacks
- 160 lunges
- 160 jump squats
- 160 twist planks
- 160 crunches
- 160 push-ups with shoulder taps
And that was before taking into account the hours of dance practice they also had to complete each day.
The members also revealed that cardio didn’t stop there. They trained on the StairMaster using speed level 10, performing high-intensity intervals instead of walking at a comfortable pace. The machine is already known for being one of the toughest forms of cardio, making the workout even more demanding.
