Workout of the Day - 2

Ok, if you did WOTD 1, you know where you stand, and what you need to get better at.  For most, pullups and handstand pushups will be the most difficult exercises on that list.  The only way to get better at those is to practice daily.  Don’t try to do maximal sets, just do a few whenever you think about it.  Pavel Tsatsouline refers to this as “greasing the groove.”

For today, we’ll create a more challenging workout using some of those same exercises.  This workout should take you about 15 minutes, but should get your heart going, and give plenty of challenge to your muscles.

5 Rounds

Do as many reps as you can of each of the following

Pushups

Bodyweight Row (if you don’t know what this is, go to Google Images and Google it.  If you don’t have anywhere to do this, replace it with Chinups)

Split Squats (also called Static Lunges - your feet don’t move)

Curl Ups (like a situp, but really focus on curling your whole torso)

Post your reactions!
