I’m always looking to try new things, keep things fresh, fun
and interesting. A lot of people do workouts that they end up hating, ones that
feel more like a chore than an adventure and even ones where they jump right
into so advanced they end up hurting themselves and quitting after that.
Progression is a key but also there’s testing to see how you push yourself
productively and safely without injuring or severely hurting themselves.
This
workout that I have picked out was on a whim and it requires only a couple
pieces of equipment which is: A long rope (25-100ft) and it can be as thick as
you can handle and a Lifeline Power Push-up Plus. It is cardio at it’s finest
in my opinion and the objective is to move from one exercise to the other
taking as little rest as possible. The two biggest factors is form and
breathing. Speed is important to but nothing like form and the breathing. This workout should be done preferably
outdoors where there’s fresh air and getting Vitamin D to help boost the
hormone levels. The exercises for the Power Push-up Plus are at 10/8/6 reps.
Here’s how it’s broken down:
30 Second Battling Rope Exercise
10 Deadlifts
30 Second Battling Rope Exercise
8 Deadlifts
30 Second Battling Rope Exercise
6 Deadlifts

30 Second Battling Rope Exercise
16 One Arm Rows (8 each side)
30 Second Battling Rope Exercise
12 One Arm Rows (6 each side)
30 Second Battling Rope Exercise
Total: 6 min. 30 seconds of Battling Ropes & 120 Reps of
the Power Push-up Plus
If it’s too
much for you, break it down in half or whatever you’re comfortable with to
start. The key thing is to keep going from one exercise to the other; it’s
tough, simple and effective. You’ll be breathing hard, sweating and testing
your will. If you don’t have these, I suggest you get them or if you have a
dumbbell or kettlebell for the rows and deadlifts and do regular push-ups, use
a towel for isometric chest pulls for 10/8/6 seconds. It’s a great workout that
requires little equipment and can be done indoors or outdoors. Try it out, see
how it goes and let me know what you think.
Be Awesome guys and always strive to find the adventure in
training.
