I finally stopped being a piece of shit last night! With the farm stuff going crazy, fixing my Veggie car and having an 8 month old, I haven't been finding time to workout (and i'm learning to play the mandolin). But last night i decided to do at least 3 a week and told anna to call me a pussy if i don't do them.
So yesterday i did scriptless tabatas. That means i picked a few exercises and anna called them out to me for every interval. I did 3 five minute sessions, to be increased next time, of the following exercises (and more), in no particular order:
Ground n pound heavy bag
Lateral Bag hops
Burpees
hillsprints
med ball throws
med ball pushups
med ball rotators
it was tough as hell, as usual, but i feel better now. i need to condition badly, so im aiming for 3 days of conditioning with an emphasis on strength stuff.
playing the mando has been a big plus, too for my mental workouts.

Air Alert II
has this blog gone to the wayside like phlogistine, pleomorphic bacteria, dane millers shot putting ability, micromuscles or am I just imagining things. If that last sentence didnt make any sense, please, read no further.
Ive made a new train partner, and we've been together for the past month; working out in the mornings and sometimes before work. His name is gohan. Kinda like hoagie-zaimus. But, we had an accident the other day and 30kg of his guts spilled on my bedroom floor. Poor guy, never saw it coming. Needless to say, the ol' lady wasnt very happy (no, not my wife... literally, she's an old lady). So, i gave him a pretty good tape job and stuffed his little rice guts back in 'is belly. But, he had to be retired back into the closet from whence he came.
Anyway, on to my workouts... i was using that 30kg bag for tabatas of front squats and overhead presses. I am continuing that workout but now ive replaced it with a giant jug of water. I had some crazy motivation today after watching scottie pippen highlights on youtube. And i will be resurrecting the Air Alert II program. Perhaps, hafer only knows about the pain and desctruction this workout brings to your legs.
Air Alert II - basically a full on plyometric/jumping program that is to be done 5 days a week, accompanied with sprints, twice a week. Goes as follows: 1/4 squat jumps, calf raises, explosive step ups, fast/all out jumps, and burn out hopping... all increasing on a weekly basis.
ps- hafer you need to mail the program again... i have a pretty good idea but im not sure i remember everything
