Are you ready to try Stefi Cohen's full body HIIT conditioning workout. This high-intensity workout consists of four rounds of 30 seconds on 10 seconds off, with one minute of rest in between each round. It's perfect for people who don’t have a lot of time but want to get some cardio in. It only takes 14 minutes to complete, no excuses!
WHO IS STEFI COHEN?
For those who don’t know who Stefi Cohen is, she is a famous powerlifter, training coach, and social media personality based in the United States. When we say "famous powerlifter", she is a 25 times world record-holding powerlifter and the first woman in the history of the sport to deadlift 4.4x her bodyweight in competition. Weighing in at only 120 lbs, she is stronger than most people walking around on this planet.
Stefi is also a doctor of physical therapy, author, co-host of the “Hybrid Unlimited podcast,” and co-owner of “Hybrid Performance.” She trains/coaches people with her evidence-based style of training and nutrition. She spends most of her time as a personal trainer now, but occasionally guest teaches at several sports universities around the US.
On top of that, Stefi Cohen is one of the latest athletes to crossover to the boxing ring; having fought two opponents, Stefi Cohen is 1-0-1 as a boxer. Her debut fight resulted in her knocking out Haydee Zapa. Her next fight is February 11th in Miami, we're looking forward to her stepping into the ring again!
