WOD: Saturday 070508

There’s nothing better than getting up and training during a Houston mid-morning, while there is no sun & humidity. Trust me, for that to happen in July, is asking for a lot. However, it wouldn’t have mattered. I planned to kick my buddy Jared, and my behind with the following quick (but killer) workout.

This was my first time training with Jared at this neighborhood park, where he holds his fitcamps. I must say it was very nice, and had plenty of components to get my evil mind working, in terms of creating some crazy park workouts…stay tuned!!!!

We even have some footage. I am editing and putting the videos together as you read this. I will post them up soon. For now, check out and perform this workout!

There is no rest between each exercise. Rest 90 secs between sets. If you do not have a Kettlebell, you can perform the swings with a dumbbell. Also, if you do not have a pull up bar nearby, you can perform inverted pull ups in the comfort of your own home. However, as warriors, we despise comfort. You can grab a long, thick lead/steel pipe (or anything kind of long, hard, and that won’t break when you pull yourself up), and place it on the seats of two study chairs. Make sure the backs of the chairs are facing each other. Be sure to secure the chairs against a wall or an immovable object, so the chairs don’t move while you are performing the inverted sit ups.

Remember, perform these exercises at your own risk. most importantly, make sure you have clearance from a medical professional before starting any exercise program…….

1. 2 Arm Kettlebell Swing

3. Inverted Pull Up

Perform ea. exercise for 1 minute ea. Move directly to the next exercise without rest. again, rest for 90 seconds between each round. Perform 3 rounds (beginners) or 5 rounds (intermediate/advanced).
