Box Squat Workout

Started off the year 2011 with the last lower body workout from my current program. I stuck with this system for a full 5 weeks, and had a great session today. Warmup included bodyweight squats, bird dogs, 1-leg RDL, duck unders, leg swings, and ankle hops.

1) Barbell Squat Jump

2) Box Squat - Worked up to 315x3 (slowly but surely getting my strength back)

3A) Glute-Ham Raise
3B) Stability Ball Plank

4A) Good Morning
4B) Ab Wheel

Followed that with a simple blender drink of 1 banana, raspberries, almond milk, and some whey protein.

Today's kick-butt mindset tip:
You can't control all the circumstances in your life…but you DO control how you react to them. Stay focused on your plan. Make the right choices. Eliminate the negative and give more time and energy to the positive in your life.

Make this your best year ever,
