5/6/14

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today is my Father's birthday.  In his memory, we will use his age, 77, as our bench mark for training session.  One of my favorite AWFisms that has stuck with me through my life is, "Mark, you can't be a cruiser.  You have to be a digger.  Cruisers watch things happen.  Diggers MAKE things happen."  Make it happen today.  Be a digger.

7 Rounds

11 Burpees
11 Swing L
11 Swing R
11 Clean L
11 Clean R
11 Snatch L
11 Snatch R

Cool down, have a nice day..  El Rey always..

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to be using odd objects to train.  Tires, sleds, logs, sandbags, ropes, plates, and sledge hammers.  Throw it in a blender and see what we come up with to have a great training session.  Everything will be done for time.  So don't worry about the rep count.  Just set the clock and go.  Great you go / I go workout.


Sled pushes
Log squats
Rope waves
Tire flips
Tire Tosses
Sledge or Medicine ball smash
Sand Bag Cleans

5/1/14

Warmup with joint mobility, dynamic movement, and foam roller.  Today we are going to hit a bodyweight training session.  These can be the hardest ones sometimes. After several days of hard weight training and conditioning, it is a good break as well.  Make sure that you are working for quality reps. Not crappy speedy ones.. No benefit to lousy form.. So focus on fighting through the fatigue.. If you have to stop, and rest and then continue fine.. Get after it..

20 minute AMRAP

8 chest to bar
10 crossover push ups http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QstWUkc4KyE
12 deep Cossack squats
14 chair dips
16 knees to chest
20 jump squats

Cool down, have a nice day..  El Rey always..
