Due to increased schedule demands of work, coaching, family ect. I will be making a couple changes to ensure that I still am able to get my training in and can still progress in my physical fitness. I will be working towards 40 consecutive days of movement patterns. If I have extra time, reps, sets, exercises and weight can all change. If I am short on time or body feels beat up, I can just make sure that all movement patters are hit.
Movements:
1) Upper body push
2) Upper body pull
3) Lower body squat
4) Lower body hinge
5) Loaded carry
6) Supplemental breathing
I am hoping that this experiment can help to instill some self-discipline as well as get rid of excuses for lack of equipment and lack of time. Some examples would be:
Kettlebells only: (after coaching, during juniors nap time, small spaces, late at night)
1) OH press
2) Bent over row or pullups
3) Goblet squat
4) Swings
5) Suitcase/farmers carries
6) Run, sprint, jump rope ect.
BW only: (durability and mobility work, late at night, lack of space, body feeling beat up ect)
1) Pushups
2) Pullups
3) Squats/Lunges
4) Box jump, broad jump
5) Pick up any object and carry for distance or substitute core work here
6) Run, sprint, jump rope ect
Barbell only (if I have access to a gym)
1) Bench Press
2) Barbell row
3) Back squat
4) Deadlift
5) Farmer/suitcase carry
6) Run, sprint, jump rope ect
If time allows, mix and match to my hearts content. If time is crunched, just hit the movements and call it a day. If I have extra time, push the pace, sets, reps, weight. The key is to just make sure each day I hit the movements.
Current stats:
Height: 6'2
Weight: 208#
Goal: 40 consecutive days.
