Bodyweight Strength Training
I found a lovely little space called St. Mary’s Playground that’s fully equipped with pullup bars and other goodies today. Started with my patent-pending warmup of 15 burpees/15 sec samson stretch on each leg, repeated 3x.
- 4 x Circuit A
- Pullups - 18 regular, 16 neutral, 13 close-grip chin, 13 neutral
- Glute-Ham Raises - 5, 5, 5, 5
- 4 x Circuit B
- One Arm Pushups - 5, 5, 5, 5
- One-Legged Squats - 5, 5, 5, 5
- 4 x Circuit C
- Handstand Pushups - 7, 7, 6, 6
- Knees-to-Elbows - 12, 12, 12, 12
- 3 x Circuit D
- Bodyweight Tricep Extensions - 15, 15, 15
- Calf Raises - 20, 20, 20
The focus was on getting a quality set for each exercise and using minimal rest (45-60 sec), not going to complete failure.
