There Will Be Sweat

Probably some blood too. No tears though. Never tears.

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.
