Daily Training 5/28/2012

Morning
Playing around with Isaiah at Cedar Falls Park in Fountain Inn, South Carolina.  Lots of wading through waist-deep water, walking on sand and rocks and balancing on logs, jumping across rocks-- a lot of interesting balance work, especially keeping a 4-year old out of fast-moving water.

Was barefoot on a lot of different surfaces and my feet are a little sore.  Think I'm going to try to be barefoot more to toughen the soles of my feet.

Early Afternoon
Flat Bench Press with my Dad. 

1. 125# x 15
2. 175# x 12
3. 195# x 8
4. 215# x 6
5. 245# x 2
6. DB- 50#/hand  x 26 reps

Chest was a little sore from previous days, so while I'm a little disappointed with the weights, it's understandable... especially since I haven't really been lifting much. 

Woodchopping

1. 25 Side Chops Each Side
2. 50 Downward Chops

Naruto Ninja Movement 2.0- Workout #1

The first Naruto Ninja Movement 2.0 workout is going to be focused on breaking up your running with a variety of basic fitness movements. None of these movements is horribly difficult, but when they are all back-to-back with no rest, you might find that even simple things can become pretty hard. 

Naruto Ninja Movement 2.0- Workout #1

1.  Run 1 Mile
2. 15 Pull-ups
3. Run 800 Meters
4. 50 Push-ups
5. Run 400 Meters
6. 50 Yard Bear Crawl
7. 25 Yard Army Crawl
8. 50 Yards Walking Lunges
9. Run 400 Meters
10. 50 Push-ups
11. Run 800 Meters
12. 15 Pull-ups
13. Run 1 Mile

 Notes:

•  If you can't do all of the reps of an exercise is one set, break it up as necessary, but do not move onto the next exercise until you complete the one you are on. 
• The goal is obviously to do this workout as fast as you possibly can, but don't sacrifice form for speed. 
• If you are not in shape to do this workout, feel free to cut everything in half. If you can't handle that, cut that in half. It doesn't matter where you have to start, as long as you start somewhere.  No matter what, always move forward. 

That's all for this workout, guys! Hope you enjoyed it.

Summer 2012 Real Anime Training Schedule- Dragonball Z

A summer-time training schedule was requested by one of our readers, so I put this together. In general, it will require very little equipment and will allow you to improvise for equipment (most times) when it is needed.  I've decided to do this from now on every summer, but with a different theme every time.

Notes:

• If, on any day, you find yourself to be too sore from a previous day's training, you may substitute "Starting the Journey" for that day. 
• In general, you will do these workouts at the level you've already achieved on them (if you've been training with us for any length of time) or start from the beginning. 
• If possible, try to train with someone, both for fun and safety's sake. 
• The workouts have links to their individual pages, if you need the reference. 

I really hope you guy's like this! Give me some feedback!

I'll be interested to see what my leg strength is like when this next phase is over. I might try to do some heavy squats/deadlifts and see where that goes.
