The title of the next workout is "Snowstorm" in honor of the raging blizzard that has engulfed Calgary over the last 12-hours. Like a snowstorm, this workout will be cold and merciless, but also treacherously beautiful.
Snowstorm
20X- Squat-knees - Squat and then knee upwards with one leg at the top of the squat. Alternate legs with every squat!
20X- Lunge presses (each leg)- Use dumbbells of moderate weight.
15X- Shoulder presses (moderate to heavy dumbbells)
50X- 90 degree crunches or sit-ups
200X- Skips with a jumprope
20X- Push-ups ( modified or regular)
60-seconds- Egg rolls (roll over exercise ball into a planked postion, pull knees towards chest repetitively)
Repeat this little ditty 2-3 X and post some times! I am going to blitz this for three repetitions and hope to go under 20-minutes. This is a nice, full-body jam. The point of the layout is to make you work for 30 to 120 seconds at each station. Don't worry if it takes you longer to complete some components ( ie. sit-ups). The point is that you complete each section for the required reps or time before moving on.
Anyway, anybody who might think that this is too tough should take a look at the little video I have posted here and rethink the concept of hardship. The video is of a very crazy gentleman who is attempting to set some type of downhill mountain biking speed record. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNwmpLPhoHw&feature=related
