Well I made it, broke a sweat and didn't even need the inhaler, though I came close (I don't have asthma if you are wondering), thats when you know it was good!
Heres the tip,
After a good hard workout I always feel its best to get something in your body within about 45 minutes for recovery and refueling. This could be a good time for a protein drink made with milk, or a good protein or energy bar. Remember your body needs to refuel after a workout in order to build muscle and get stronger. This also holds true in the world of Adventure, especially after a long day of "shredding the nar". Speaking of snowboarding, its almost that time of the year here on the east coast and I have the itch Those of you in CO, you are envied. I think I'm about due for another trip here soon, Lord willing.
My workout tonight consisted of 3 key elements...
all upper body lifting
1 - Explosive movements (plyometrics)
* plyo-pushups
* explosive bench press, up fast down slow
* explosive military press
* karate punches w/15lb weights, it looks super corny but it's killer if you finish out your whole set
etc.
2 - Endurance
* rested no more than 30 sec in between each set and new lift, but rotated though all the lifts for a full hour
3 - Form
* what good is your workout if you have bad form?
* use less weight if you are swinging like a chimpanzee
I like this workout because it goes hand in hand with anaerobic and specific "upper body sports"
