Mon 6-11-12: Full Body Daily Workout
Today I did 1 set of a bunch of exercises split throughout the day. A few here and there, a few the next hour, a few more a couple hours later. Heavy enough to get about 5 good reps.
DB clean, DB front squat, Pullup, bench press, suitcase deadlift, standing press, single arm negative Pullup, and a few others, whatever I felt like doing.
Fri/Sat 6-8/9-12: Park Days
Playing at the park the last two days with my boys…
Friday in Yorba Linda:
This was great for obstacle course runs and was a little bit on the bigger side so presented a nice challenge for me as well as the boys.
Saturday in downtown Fullerton:
Great for climbing and transversing, pullups, swinging and just some different movement challenges.
Two very cool play dates…
Thur 6-7-12: Hiking
Today I hiked. Took a little trail around the corner and walked through a gully. Got some sun, some exercise and felt great.
Tues 6-5-12: Deadlift Challenge
Yesterday a fellow trainer said he tried the following workout: deadlift (60% of your max) as many reps as possible (AMRAP) in 12 minutes. He said I should try it so today I did…
AMRAP 60% Deadlift in 12 minutes
112 rep at 225 lbs.
My max deadlift is about 375 so 225 was just right.
Good workout, time to walk it off…
Mon 6-4-12: Videos
Today I only had about 30 minutes to exercise and decided to just film some exercise videos for my You Tube channel. Filmed some treadmill incline sprints, some jumping, a little bicep work, a few rowing/pulling exercises and a few core exercises.
Here’s one of the links.
Fri 6-1-12: Play Day
Today I went to the park with my friend and fellow natural mover Bryan (of Frontdive Fitness). We threw the frisbee around, climbed some trees and did some pullups, played on the playground, swung on the swings and just hung out. A great time with some sun and activity built in.
