500 - 3 x per week.... HELP!
-
push ups, sit ups, curls, press, intervals, farmer's carries, planks, etc.<br />
<br />
Try doing kettlebell variations? -
start I reckon by recording everything - your walks etc with those map my whatever apps. I hate walking etc, but since I have sorted thos out, love it, just to compare. That run we did around the hills in Whanga Hooroo was 4.07 miles long thanks to mapmyrun!!<br />
<br />
Dumbells, 10kgs - perfect. 50 curls, 50 shoulder press, 50 french press (tricep thingy), 50 press ups, 50 lunges (if your knees hold out for that) etc. Probably a good weight for doing 50s (and more)... -
50 Burpees will make me cry but I do love them.<br />
<br />
You guys may need to explain them.<br />
<br />
What's a military press and barbell rows?<br />
<br />
I think that is enough for a first session though<br />
<br />
Burpees<br />
Press ups<br />
Sit Ups<br />
Military Press<br />
Squat Jumps<br />
Overhead Press<br />
Lunges<br />
hmmmmm 3 more please -
and I reckon, every morning when you roll out of bed, do as many press ups as you can. The first thing you do when you get up. And record how many etc. Reckon that in itself would be an interesting experiment to see how fast your body adapts and you improve. WHen you start having to get up ten minutes earlier than normal so you're not late for work you can quit...

Farmers Carries (What are these?)<br />
<br />
Yeah bartman, When at the beach we are parking the car at the bach and cyling everywhere. Probably cycled about 2 hours on the weekend.<br />
<br />
Can't cycle round the farm as it's on highway 27 and just too busy -
FArmers carries are pretty much just going for a long walk, with your dumb bells....

military press and overhead press the same.<br />
<br />
[/quote]<br />
<br />
I think there is slight difference in that military press has feet together and overhead press feet apart. Not alot though! -
Hadn't wiki'd it before but mentions on there that military version is strict heels together<br />
<br />
-
depends on the walk...although I guess actual farmers walk vs a 45min walk with weights is probably different

[quote name='V-Diddy' timestamp='1358752271' post='338787']Farmers carries completely pointless with 10kg weights<br />
<br />
Try turkish getups and one arm snatch (10 reps each side) for a bit of core work[/quote]<br />
<br />
Agree. Unless 10kgs is a "struggle" you really need heavy DBs for farmers carries. <br />
<br />
1-arm DB swings. <br />
Floor wipers holding up the 2 10kg DBs would be okay<br />
DB squat press -

A Bodyweight Workout for Busy Men
A short, intense bodyweight workout is just what the doctor ordered.
<br />
If your girlfriend (or another friend) is strong you can use a towel and try some resistance work, ie tug of war (seated and standing), resisted sprints, arm curls and squats
