Friday and Rest

Here is a link to my favorite new protein.
Jay Robb Whey Protein
I had cut whey out of my diet for a while as almost all of it contains some sort of artificial sweetener. Acesesulfame Potassium sounds like something that might be good for you. It is in fact an under tested artificial sweetener that has led to cancer in mice. Check your protein, you are more than likely getting this or sucralose in your product.

FRIDAY

TWO
“Five Rounds with Baggy Boy”

Rounds are 3:30, whatever time you don’t use is rest. Total time 17:30

You will need a 100 lb. object. We use a heavy bag.

-Bag flip to wall is the first movement. The heavy bag rests about one foot from the wall. Trainee grabs the bag and flips it with a squat up and push out motion, bag hits wall, trainee grabs bag and flips if back to the ground, repeat x10

-Bag squat is the second movement. Bear hug the bag and sumo squat to thighs parallel position.
repeat x10

-Bag hop are the third action. Get up and over the bag with feet facing parallel to the bag.
x20 double leg
x10 right leg
x10 left leg

-Knees is the next action. Hands and elbows on the bag, drive knees into bag at full force
x20.

-Last, quickly mount the bag and drive forearm blows into it as hard as you can
x20

My times ranged between 2:20 and 2:30, will shoot for 2:10 next time and cut it to 3:00 minute rounds.

THREE

Pull Work

10 Tennis ball pull ups

10 side pulls (grab bar like a baseball bat, with body perpendicular to bar pull up, bringing inside shoulder to bar)

Tabata Burpees

What’s a Tabata?

10 rounds, 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off for a five minute total.
50 burpees total.

FEEL THE BURN!!!

Jumped in the car and went to Legion Park and played three games two on two, managing to sprain my right big toe in the process when the slow guy defending me stuck his foot right in front of mine as my foot landed in a full blown sprint.
As Peter says, “Basketball is a dangerous game.”
I think he means that in a bad way?

SATURDAY
Eat, Sleep, Repeat.

PEEEETOOOOW!!!!

PANOS4TIME (P4T)

Perform these in order until done. Rest for 1-2 minutes. Repeat for 5 revolutions. Record your time.

50 jumping jacks
10 burpees*
(*modify if needed to complete due to stiffness in the back half of your body. You could do this by performing a double knee tuck from a plank position followed by a double leg extension followed by a push up for 15 reps. Perform in a smooth manner combining moves.)
20 KB swings with 30lb kettle bell. A dumbbell may be substituted.
10 lateral cone touches. Cones are set at 8′ apart. Use any 12″ object as substitute. ( 1 rep is a completion of 2 cone touches)

Posted client times ranged from under 2 minutes to just over 3 minutes. Experienced clients should be able to score under 2 minutes.
This can be used as a warm up or as an early a.m. client noted, an “I am awake now” workout. She had planned on going to nap after our 8am session. She did not follow through with that after our session. Who needs coffee?

Blueberry Energy Smoothie

This shake will satiate and provide energy. Definitely not for the late night hours if you are trying to lose weight but good for an earlier daytime boost, perhaps for your pre workout meal.

1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
1 1/2 cup soy milk
1 cup orange juice
1 scoop protein powder

Place all ingredients in a blender, blend well and enjoy.
