Did a four exercise circuit this morning: Goblet Squats, Pull-Ups, Push-Ups, Farmer's Walk.  Repeated the circuit five times and finished up with interval work on the rower.

Boxing this morning (10 minutes of jump rope, 6 rounds on the heavy bag, 2 rounds on the speed bag, 2 rounds on the double-end bag, slip rope and footwork drills).  Finished up with core work (suitcase carries with a kettlebell and hanging leg raises) and intervals on the rower.

 

My obsession with the double-end bag is paying some dividends.  I'm spending more time landing multi-punch combinations and less time flailing around missing the target.  Just thought I would brag a bit...

I'm liking these circuit workouts.  I can get in a full-body workout in limited time.  Did four exercises: Kettlebell Goblet Squats, Pull-Ups, Bench Press, Overhead Dumbbell Press.  Repeated the circuit five times and finished up with intervals on the rower.

Did strength work this morning: Squats, Overhead Press, Pull-Ups, and Dips.  Core work: Hanging Leg Raises, Roll Outs, and Good Mornings.  Finished up with intervals on the rower and 10 minutes of mobility work.

 

Found a weird little mind-hack that is surprisingly effective.  I read an article by Dan John where he talked about "blasting off."  On those later sets of squats, the ones where you're really grinding them out, instead of counting from one up...you do a countdown (5-4-3-2-1).  Sometimes it just takes a subtle shift to make a big difference.

Back on track with 20 minutes elliptical yesterday morning and a 3 hour routine at the gym this morning: 30 minutes Zumba; 45 minutes kickboxing; 44 minutes spinning; 60 minutes barre. This is my new Friday routine, but I missed last week 'cause the gym had a modified pared down schedule due to the storm.  Boo got his workout in.  How's it going for you, Lisa?

Brag away!  You're earning the rights. I've been fighting a cold the last two weeks so I've backed off a bit.  Been needing the extra sleep big time.

Sometimes we need the rest more than the exercise.

 

Rec knows what I'm talking about.

Didn't do a formal workout this morning, but got plenty of exercise.  Did some volunteer trail construction/maintenance work this morning.  Around 6 miles of hiking and a bunch of work with a grub hoe, bow saw, and pick axe.

 

If you're looking for a good full-body strength exercise...find a boulder that's roughly the same size as a Volkswagen Beetle and try to move it with a pry bar.  That'll get you pumping.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
