HI-INTENSITY! Today was a HI IT Cardio day and I found this workout on http://www.musclepharm.com/ which has been producing some pretty intense workouts lately.
Perform the following circuit:
Run 1/2-mile
30 pull-ups
50 pushups
30 ab wheels
Repeat 4 times
I was only able to this circuit for a total of 3 times instead of the 5 total sets they tell you to do. I felt like I was hitting every major muscle group during this circuit. By the time I got to the third set I really struggled on the pull-ups, pushups, and ab wheels because the only rest I took was walking from one exercise to the next. The Running was soothing because it helped get rid of any lactic acid I had built up from the pushups, pull-ups, and ab wheels, but at the same time my legs were working out.
I am going to add this workout into my routine only because it is Tough Mudder specific and difficult to complete. I love a challenge so when it is hard for me to complete a workout I develop new goals and continue to work until I achieve them.
Meal 1:
Egg Whites
Meal 2:
Almond Butter sandwich on Wheat Bread
Meal 3:
Chicken and Broccoli
Meal 4:
Pre-workout Whey Protein Shake
Meal 5:
Post Workout Whey Protein Shake
Meal 6:
Salmon and veggies
