P.S. You wanted 1500 training, you got it...

The Equipment:

Let me post this workout again. I couldn;t believe it the first time either:

50 yard sprint x 10 (walk back to start each time )
100 hanging leg raises
150 pushups
200 walking lunges
250 bicycle crunches
300 jumping jacks

I did have a few questions for the big guy and the texts ensued. My first (and probably most important) was if he accepted a lay a way plan for his routine requirements. See, I figured even with a 10% holding fee, doing only 100 each week would have gotten me done in time for christmas. That way, I'd be able to move after the morning ended today. The answer was not as pleasant as the question. And FYI, there is no Lay a way.

Other questions:

Can I mix and match sets? NO

Can I do them in any order? NO

Will you drive down to spoon feed me after this because I won't ba able to move? NO, You have a family for that.

Needless to say, I had a huge workout ahead of me and it took a few extra minutes to psych myself up to get this done, then it was off to the sprints.

First obstacle I hit was holding on to the rings (PS. I Tried the Archer pull up. It was nasty, but I will nail it soon!) 100 hanging leg raises is BRUTAL! The last 10 reps I could feel my lower abs trying to commit suicide instead of working through it. It took everything I had to get them done. Same came with each subsequent exercise. First 20 push ups were easy as pie, until I realized I didn;t even put a dent in the reps owed, then it was 20 rest 10 rest, 5 long rest then repeat.

About the time we finished the pushups, a yard sale a block away sprung up out of nowhere. There was a good crowd growing at the yard sale too as we started putting a dent in the walking lunges. Nothing better on a Saturday morning than seeing 2 grown men prancing down a sidewalk like balerinas while attempting to purchase someone else's crap. Imagine the scene:

Yeah, that's what it looked like. Last 50 reps were hell. I felt like my hamstrings disappeared and I was lifting my body without having muscles. I had to take a quick break at this point to get some water to flush back the dinner I had trying to escape me and it was back to bicycle crunches. Tore through these, mostly because I wanted to finish the program before it turned into Sunday, and then hammered through the jumping jacks 100 a set.

This day was one hell of a workout. Knowing tomorrow is an off day, I'm sure Geoff wanted to make today grueling so I needed 2 days to recover, just in time to tear it up again. That and today is my brother's birthday, and it will be the first party I've gone to in quite a while that I won't worry about whatI eat or drink. Today's debacle was paid for by blood sweat and tears and I'm off to enjoy it thoroughly.

See you Monday! BOOM
