19/05/2013 workout

I tried to squeeze a TRX workout yesterday despite having to run all over the place. I was quite happy to be able to complete the workout within 50 minutes. That was enough time for me to do all my other chores at home.

Warm up and stretches - 5 minutes

TRX hip press - 45 secs
TRX overhead back extension - 45 secs
TRX lunges - 10 per leg
TRX pike - 45 secs

Rest 1 minute then repeat, before moving on to

TRX sprinter start - 10 per leg
TRX side lunge - 45 secs
TRX hamstring runner - 45 secs
TRX body saw - 10 reps

Rest 1 minute then repeat, before moving on to

TRX kneeling roll out - 5 reps per side
TRX burpee - 5 per side
TRX deltoid fly - 45 secs

Rest 1 minute then repeat, before moving on to

50 KB swings (25 per arm)

Not doing these kind of workout in a while has caused me ab cramps during today, since most TRX workouts engages your core like none other. I will try to stick to this plan, since:-
a) Its more methodical, meaning running away from it is less likely
b) Its progressive yet ever changing, so I don't get bored with it
c) While tiring, its doesn't entirely burn you out and leave you sore immediately after

For strength training, I'll try to keep it to 1-2 times a week only, since I'd need more rest to recover.
