Anti-Gym Workout

Today I did the anti-gym workout, doing a whole bunch of fat burning exercises that you can do at home. Most don't even need equipment, although I did start with some kettlebell exercises.

Warmup:

Bodyweight squats, pushups, stretches

Kettlebell work

2-hand swings, 1-hand swings, 1-arm snatches

Jump training outside (even though it was just above freezing, it felt like the perfect temperature for a workout - I wore gloves and a couple of layers, but I still had the shorts on - Canadian style)

Broad jumps, 1-leg hops, side to side jumps (these are all in the TT BW Cardio 2.0 Workout A)

Unfortunately, every time I jump, my dog jumps on me.

Sprint Intervals

Short 10 second intervals. Did 10. 2 warmup, 6 real ones, 2 easy ones to finish off.

Of course, my dog was jumping on me, and trying to grab my shorts as I ran. That'll slow you down.

Good workout though. Canadian-style.

Great day for an anti-gym session,
