Bodyweight Blaster
July 12, 2008
Here’s a nice little workout for those who want to take a break from the weights.
I’ve used this routine as a change of pace from my normal weight training. I usually follow a bodyweight program for about 2-4 weeks before jumping back on the weight wagon again.
The Blaster is a combo of Combat Conditioning and Ross Enamait stuff. You will do the bodyweight exercises in circuits with minimal rest between each circuit. I won’t give specifics because you must base the amount of rest time or lack thereof, on your own conditioning level.
You want to work up to the point were you can go through the circuits without any rest. You can do the exercises based on time or by numbers. For example, do as many pull-ups as you can in 60 seconds. That’s time-based. Or you can perform the exercises to failure or a certain rep count. That’s numbers based.
Here’s the workout:
Bodyweight Blaster
Burpees
Chins
Pushups
Squats
Notes: Perform for 3-4 rounds and then for fun, finish off with a punching bag workout or some Intervals. Awesome stuff. Get plenty of rest, eat good food and drink lots of water. Remember to work out with max intensity.
Understand that to be successful in any weight training program – hard work is a must! Half-hearted effort does nothing for you. If you’re new to weight training or grossly out of shape, consult a physician first. End of disclaimer.
