end of a week star of a new

hello all. i've been recovering/overcoming the obstacle of being sick. for the past few weeks i've been transitioning my diet back into my old healthy diet. i have also been taking a pretty awesome multi vitamin.

training has also been afoot! yesterday i did a quite strenuous circuit of 3 sets of this:

Handstand Push-Up x 5 immediately followed by Clap Push-Ups x 5

Pistol or weighted Pistol x 5 (each leg) immediately follwed by Jump Squats x 10

L-Pull-Up or Weighted Pull-Up x 5 immediately followed by Clap Pull-Ups x 5 (kipping pull-up + clap)

After finishing 3 total circuits, finish with Front Plank and Side Plank x 2:00 each.

That brings us to today. Sunday. I started things off with shoulder and hip stretching movements. On to the workout... for that I worked as fast and as hard as I possibly could to get through 7 sets of & pull-ups, 14 burpees, and 21 squats. Following this workout I stretched out my arms and legs during the cool down session. I then promptly hit the couch and konked out into a deep sleep because of how exhausting this workout was!

I'm going to continue to train hard and try to improve on my strength and skills each day.

safe training my peoples

Wednesday (and previous missed days)

Buenos dias folks there in internet land! Jared here for another updat for this here training blog of mine. Sorry I haven't gotten on to post in awhile, I haven't had the time to sit down and write to you all. But I am back and here to share with you all about what I have been up to in the wide world of bodily training.

So on monday I did the Apk warm up and then went for a 3 and a half mile run! I was so happy to get out and actually run some for I had not gotten out and ran in a couple weeks now! Did a quick stretching cool down and was all done for the day.

Tuesday I started things off with the American Parkour Warm up for something new. And then did a descending rep circuit of handstand pushups, pullups, and burpees. Cooled down with some stretching and shoulder ROM excercises.

Finally we are now at today where I warmed up and then tried to get thru 8 sets of 10x squats and 30-sec handstand holds as fast as I could. Then ended it today with some sprinting drills and stretching.

Happy Training
Jared

Weekend Update or Whatever

So I'm sorry I did not post thursday or friday... I did workout those days! Just I didn't have the time to sit at the computer and post either day. So that's why today I am posting what I did on those days.

I had wanted to get out in training at this playground with little jared on thursday but when we had gotten there the entire playground was covered in snow and we weren't wearing the most winter friendly clothes that day.

So I went home... I started the workout on thursday with the APK warmup. From there I spent about twenty minutes working on my planche. Because I have not been training a whole lot with body weight I have progressed backwards and was working on frog planches to build wrist and upper body strength. I also did pseudo-planche push-ups. And some handstand holds and handstand presses. Finished thursday up with stretching and shoulder exercises and rolls.

Friday I got home from a long day at work and did the APK warmup and tabata intervals of push ups pull ups sit ups and squats!! What a great way to get the muskels a burning!!!

Well i will be back on monday to post about my parkour happenings. Till then!...

Tuesday Climbing Session

Jared D. and I (jared forbes) went to Bartlett Elementary School after work and did some training.

We warmed up with the APK warm-up and then did the APK Workout of the Day

After that we spent a half hour on everything that involved climbing up. So wall climbs, wall runs, shimmys, etc.

We cooled down with stretching and shoulder ROM exercises.

Playground Training

I was a little hesitant to go out and train today seeing how it was so frigid! But I made it out. Jared Forbes and I went to this new playground (well new to me) to train, and I have to say it is pretty much perfect for training. Lots of multi-level drops, things to swing and lache from, countless precision jump possibilities, things to vault over!! I was like a kid in a candy store!

Today's set of training started us off with the American Parkour warmup: 3 sets of 10 x pushups, 10 x pullups, 10 x prisoner squats, 2 x samson stretches, running, and pk rolls and dive rolls.

From there we did some lache work and some cat leaps.

We played a quick game of "the Ground is Hot Lava" till our upper body gave out of strength.

For the rest of the training session we worked on landing precision jumps that were well past comfort level for both of us.

Ending with a session of stretching, I'd say that was quite the workout.

I/We will be back to training on Monday,
