Vlog #3 - This Bodyweight Workout Will Have You Sweating Buckets!


Hi Everyone!

Welcome to my third vlog... which is less like a vlog, and more like a mini movie of my workout, but whatever, you get the point.

This one is a tough one and take a a little longer than some of the past ones I shared, so be ready to block off some time.

Here's how it breaks down:

  • 800 meter run
  • 50 push-ups
  • 100 air squats
  • 150 sit-ups
  • 800 meter run
Cake right?  Well, for me, not so much.  I felt "fairly" good after the push-ups, but the air squats totally gassed me.  The last time I tried this workout was about a year ago while at one of my fittest points in my life.  For benchmark workouts such as this, I write down everything, so it was eyeopening for me to see that I still have a ways to go before I get to where I was last year at this time.

So, how did YOU do with this one?  Feel free to share your time and thoughts in the comments below or over on YouTube (or on the Facebook page if that's your thing).  I'm going to be doing this one again in a month, so if you have any tips, I'm all ears!

Thanks for stopping by everyone!  Keep on pushing!

DIY Slam Ball

Image
A Slam Ball is a great addition to your gym equipment arsenal that gives you a workout one can’t typically get with traditional gym equipment. One of the first things that struck me about these weighted objects is the are not cheap!  I’ve seen 20 lb. slam balls going for as much as $50.  It’s no wonder you can find so many DIY postings for creating your own.  However when researching these DIY products, I discovered that most of them resulted in a weighted ball nothing like the slam balls you can buy in s store.  I too have made the duct tape covered, sand filled basket ball, but to me, those aren’t slam balls, they are medicine balls .  A slam ball needs to have the rubbery texture for grip, and they need to give with the weight and absorb the force of hitting the ground… when slammed they shouldn’t bounce.   They also need to be extremely durable.  The medicine balls (you can see my DIY on those here ) I have made are very tough and strong and can definitely handle being

DIY Medicine Ball

This is a quick little "how to" on how to make your very own, custom made DIY Medicine Ball. The video above covers everything.  In this written portion I'll just quickly lay out the steps, costs and any other nugget I didn't have time for in the video.  While you'll get everything you need from this written post, I think the video is great for really taking you through all the steps and painting a picture for you.  Here's a list of materials I used, along with their costs. Volley Ball        -   $8.08 (https://amzn.to/46gi0et) Play Sand        -   $5.00 (50lb bag) Tube Patch Kit   -   $4.33 (https://amzn.to/465ZEgd) Gorilla Tape     -   $7.99 (https://amzn.to/476wWgx) Duck Tape       -   $3.47(https://amzn.to/3svyQbC) That gives us a grand total of $28.87.   And that's really a maximum price you would pay in the event you had none of the materials already.   If you have an old ball, USE IT!  A bag of sand in the back yard or a r

DIY Climbing Pegboard

Image
Remember that scene in Vision Quest where Louden Swain climbed that pegboard in the gym and blew all his team mates away?  No?  Anyone?  If not, you must be under 40.  Anyway, it was a great moment, and in the recent years, thanks to CrossFit, they have made a comeback. As far as craftsmanship woodworking skills go, you don't need a whole heck of a lot to complete this project... consider it a good gateway project into the world of woodworking.  However, you DO need some quality tools, otherwise it's going to take a lifetime to complete. And as far as costs go, this one didn't cost me very much at all.  Primarily because the main board I used was a scrap piece of wood I found.  And when I started, it really did look scrap... nicked, scuffed, sun bleached and paint.  But in the end, I think it turned out looking great! So, here's what you need to make your own DIY Pegboard. One 2x12 board (length depending on how high your ceiling is) One 1/14" dowel ro
