This is new England, you take good days as well as utilize them when you can get one as you dont understand when there will be another. On those days Im just not “feelin it” for being in the fitness center cause its as well damn good out or some other reason – however Im in requirement of some exercise – I will utilize an “alternative workout” to my common program. My personal training program revolves around resistance training (weight training baby!) mainly, a GPP/conditioning day(1), as well as LISS. My general set up, per a program I established called Brinks hybrid Program, includes particular structured resistance training a GPP/Conditioning/HIIT day approx when every 7-10 days as well as some LISS. When, I state LISS (low intensity stable specify aerobics) I imply 30 minute walk, or perhaps a 40-60 minute bike trip at an simple speed done as much for relaxation as well as piece of mind, as for exercise.
I wont go into detail about exactly how the resistance training is set up, however the GPP/Conditioning day has its own particular structure I phone call the Hybrid-HIIT day. However, some days, when Im just not feelin the gym, I will do something else that fits my requirement for a GPP/conditioning type day. For example:
I took the Prowler as well as 50lb sand bag to a hill by a regional park as well as did Prowler pushes (using “easy” handles going up as well as “hard” handles going down hill) utilizing my GymBoss interval timer for 10 minutes, as well as complied with with Camiseta Club America one leg st leg dead lifts very set with lunges utilizing the sand bag. I like the one leg directly leg dead lift with the sand bag as its just about the most unbalanced darn thing you can do, as well as you feel it in much much more then just the hamstrings, as so numerous muscles change to keep you from falling over. My legs are always sore after that workout!
Yesterday, I had one more “Im not feelin the fitness center however want to get some exercise” kinda day (it was 70 as well as sunny out!) so back to the park I went. This time, I took the drag sled as well as 75lb sand bag to the park close to my house.
I had my interval timer set to 1:30 as well as did a circuit of:
forward drag sled (30 sec)1 min rest(reverse drag sled (30 sec)1 min restpush ups (30 sec)one min restone leg st leg dead (30 sec per leg)rest
Repeat till Dead 😎
Did as numerous cycles of that as I might stand, took 5 minute rest, then reversed the rest/work intervals of 1 min work, 30 secs rest, as well as did the above for as numerous cycles as I might stand, which was not numerous I have to admit!
Back house for a publish workout drink!
The above is taking location of what would be the Hybrid/HIIT day in my hybrid Program – which includes the Deluxe edition of The BodyBuilding exposed Program – as well as its fantastic for GPP/conditioning as well as general calorie burning.
Point is, be inventive as well as innovative with your workouts, however within that, ought to be a structure as well as a function to it which fits into a larger program that eventually fits your specific goals.

The video below is a similar workout to the “Alternative workouts for Burning Calories as well as losing Fat” workout I put up recently, however minus the upper body work. This workout has ahead as well as reverse sled drags, lunges, one leg directly leg deadlifts, as well as Planks (which didnt get filmed…) for a extremely efficient “functional” leg, butt, as well as general conditioning workout. If much more people – particularly women – did much more workouts like this, utilizing low tech tools, they would get far much better as well as quicker results. I see so much squandered time in the fitness center on all way of “butt firming” machines, exercises, as well as other time wasters, which might all be done with a program such as this.
Theres so numerous productive “functional” motions that can be finished with sandbags, as well as a few other things (such as the GymBoss Interval timer, etc) whether utilized as part of a program, as an “alternative” to their primary program, etc, its a ‘no-brainer product in my view.
For high level athletes, MMA, bbers, etc, such a workout can be much more of a GPP/Conditioning Day or part of the general program, depending upon goals, as well as exactly how challenging one makes the workout. add 3-4 45lb plates to that sled, as well as make the sand bag a 100lb plus bag, as well as all however an elite strong guy will have a extremely difficult as well as productive workout.
