FREE Workout # 142 March 2 2012

Todays workout is a mixture of lifting large loads long distances quickly and Gymnastics.

Death by:

  1. Body weight Dead lift 
  2. Chin ups


The way this works is on the first minute you complete 1 rep of the two exercises. Every minute there after you add 1 repetition to the number you must complete of each exercise. On the 2nd minute you will do 2 DL and 2 Chin ups. On the 10th minute you will do 10 DLs and 10 chin ups.

Good Luck

Follow up with a 5km time trial

A NEAT ATTITUDE - Thanks BOB

A little over a month ago my cousin approached me wanting to get fit for  his trip to Europe, shed 10 plus kilograms and feel more confident with his body. We will call him BOB to keep his name private. Well BOB has turned up to his 3 training sessions with the most positive refreshing attitude. He is willing to try new things, mimics my movements and brings an intensity that will generate the results he desires. Every week is different, we do boxing, sprints and KB squats 1 week and another week we do push ups, sit ups and lunges for time. That is just an example of the last 2 weeks. What I have noticed in life in general, as people get older they tend to get set in their ways and close themselves off from new things. What inspires me most about BOB is that he is so ready to move towards his goals. BOB brings the attitude of an athlete, the intensity of an athlete and chooses to have fun doing it. As a trainer I love to coach, but I also get to learn a lot from what makes a successful athlete.

Lets all take a leaf out of BOB's book and bring the attitude and intensity of an athlete to our Personal training this week.

September 8 2011 - Dead man walking

Daily Dose

Dead lift 3,3,3,3,3 Max weight
post your dead lift weight to the comments section of the site. Record for each set (3 reps completed non-stop)

2 min rest

Dead Walk 3 x 100m
Grab the two heaviest things you can hold and go walking (one in each hand) Keep your shoulders back, chest open and eyes looking ahead and walk it out. 


I'm calling this exercise the dead walk because @ the end of each set your legs will feel drained of energy and in a sense dead.

At the end of today's Dose you will be like a dead man walking and your legs will feel even sorer in the days ahead. Take some time to stretch out your bodies major muscle groups and be sure to get some protein back into your system real quick for amino acids that help your body repair and grow. Tomorrow is a scheduled rest day so no excuses for pulling rank and being soft on today's Dose.

August 25 2011

Daily Dose

7 sets for time
10x 50kg Deadlift
30x chin ups in L HOLD posture

Record your time to site comments

Warm up
burpees and skipping for 5 minutes and stretch full body to cool down.
Combination of generating power through hip extension on the deadlift and stability through hip flexors in flexion during the chin up with legs held parallel to the ground. The time factor, high chin up repetitions and contants weight of deadlift will be a great challenge and certainly works the aerobic and anaerobic capacity throughout.

Substitute
chin ups with pulling chest to bar on a handrail with feet on the ground.
Substitute deadlift weight with something appropriate for your level or just use bar or broomstick for beginners.

Good luck
