Training Journal

A journal of my martial arts training

Tag: workout

  • Started my new workout schedule. Today was a random easing into things. Started with a three-parter: crouch, shoot out to push up position, 2 pushups, 10 mountain climbers, crouch, jump up to bars and two pull ups, drop and repeat until tired. I took a breather, then repeated again. Next was a set of squats with a 20 lbs weight while standing on the large unstable halfdome, then lateral twist squats on the half dome, then 15 hungarian squats on each leg. I finished with 20 fly machine at 100 lbs and 8 push up machine at 120 lbs (I think).
