1/29/09

Ok, another try. If I can't get consistent this time I'm going to just let it go.

Today's workout was another adapted from the Mountain Athlete site. This one came from their new, Military/Tactical section. This is a great work capacity workout and the inner tube sandbag was perfect for it. However, a fair amount of the sand that went into it was damp, so it is ROCK HARD frozen in the garage. I got some extra work in by slamming the tube on the ground a la ball slams to soften it up.

Warm-Up: (5 Rounds)
3x DOT Drill
5x Dips

Dot Drill here:


(1) 100x Sandbag Get-Ups @ 50# (Took me about 25 min)

(2) 5 Rounds
5x Pull-Ups
15x Push-Ups

Simple and effective. My core will be wrecked from the Get-Ups tomorrow.

Took a rest day today. Going to get 4 days in a row starting Friday.

Saturday is going to be a puke fest, I'm sure.

I finally found some guys who are giving up on the big box gym as well. Turns out one of them even has a big tire that will be getting flipped on Saturday. I'll be bringing the sandbag and the drag tire along for that one as well. It's going to be like a co-op of suffering.
