Fasted from 9pm last night until about 20 minutes after sprints, when I had a couple handfuls of jerky, raw almonds, blueberries, with some fish oil, cod liver oil and vitamin D (hopefully I soaked up some sun today!)

TRAINING/NUTRITION BLOG: 02/17/13 4-Minute Workout (and it definitely doesn't involve anything you might see on an infomercial)

TRAINING: 

3PM-

One 100% all-out Tabtata hill sprint up this rocky, steep-ass hillside. Lungs still burning. Last two 20-second intervals were nothing more than a crawl. This will serve as this week's immunization from the epidemic of pussification that is taking over the country.

There is an actual workout you can do in less than 5 minutes per day that will do something for you. It is this. (Note it does not involve any shaking weights, ridiculous electronic…

TRAINING/NUTRITION BLOG: 02/16/13

TRAINING:

530PM-

Striking/kicking drills alternated with ring rows and Hindu pushups (100 of each). 

Barbell front squats (Yes, you read that right). 3 X 3 @ 225 (about my bodyweight for a starter) w/3 minute rest between sets. 

I decided to throw something different into the mix for a while. I am being super, super conservative on these and trying my best not to add weight too fast. This is a very light load, for just a few reps to see if I gain…

930AM-

2-ARM SWINGS 10 X 10 WITH 40KG (That's it. No more.)



I read something compelling a while back that said using a kettlebell closest to 1/3 your bodyweight in short sets such as these are a great way to build speed. I totally agree, and have been doing this for some time; however, I have been going a little heavier. Ideally, I would have even used a smaller bell and even fewer sets than this, but this felt light as it…

TRAINING/NUTRITION BLOG: 02/02/13 - Thoughts on "Daily Deal" Fitness Specials

Almost every day I see another fitness business in the area running a special on one of the "daily deal" sites. I looked into this way back and found that they basically wanted me to give away my product for free, while they skimmed a good profit for doing essentially nothing except sending out an email. I don't think these are good for local businesses, unless the patrons actually sign up long-term. But why should they?

You could do a different gym for every month of the year…
