Thursday 31 May 2012: 10 X 10 SPRINTS

10 x 10 SPRINTS
​
Same workout for everyone today. Adjust the intensity of each sprint interval according to your individual ability. You should be out of breath after each sprint interval, but you should recover quickly enough to begin the next assigned sprint.


  • 5 minutes - Cardio Activity
    (E.g. Run, Run-in-place, Jumping Jacks, Skip Rope, Bear or Crab Crawl)
    Pick an exercise that raises your heartrate and can be sustained for five minutes. This is a general warm-up, not a sprint. If you are out of breath, you are pushing too hard.
  • Repeat 10x:
    10 seconds - Sprint
    50 seconds - Jog/Walk to recover
  • 5 minutes - Cardio Activity

Friday 8 June 2012: TRIPLE-UPs

TRIPLE UPs: PULL-UP, SIT-UP, PUSH-UP​

Perform as many supersets of pull-ups, sit-ups, and push-ups as possible in twenty minutes.


A superset is done by performing one set of each exercise back to back to back with little or no rest in between. Choose a number of reps that is well below your max to prevent early burnout during the training session. The training effect today will come from the overall volume of exercise combined with short rest periods, not max effort sets. Rest between supersets as necessary.


Intermediate and Basic trainees should substitute assisted, partial, or jumping pull-ups, body rows, crunches, and knee push-ups as necessary.

Wednesday 13 June 2012: PU DROP SETS

PUSH-UP DROP SETS​

Today we'll be applying a popular weightlifting technique to a bodyweight exercise. The concept is simple: perform a set of hard push-ups, then immediately perform a set of an easier push-up variation, then immediately perform a third set of an even easier version. This workout is tough; do not underestimate it. Keep the reps low, especially early in the session, to avoid burnout.


Complete as many drop sets as possible in twenty minutes.

  • Regular PU
  • Knee PU
