300 Workout

         If you’re a workout fiend like myself then this is a good workout to add to your routine once or twice a week.  I try to do it once a week but it doesn’t always work out that way (no pun intended), it just doesn’t sometimes but I feel it just the same any and every time I do it.  It’s not that time consuming, especially once you get stronger and use to the workout.  It’s called the 300 workout.  This workout requires 300 reps, hence the name 300.  The first time I did the workout it took me damn near an hour but I have made strides since then and I can complete the entire workout in about 30 minutes.  I have read on other sites and blogs that the goal is to finish the workout in sub 20 minutes time.  I haven’t gotten there but I believe it’s possible given the strides I have made since my 1st time doing the workout.  Many of the moves are pretty traditional and familiar but I have explained the floor wipers underneath the list of workout moves.  Let me know what you think and how fast you finished.  Remember you want to limit your rest as much as possible so no 5 minute rests.  Push yourself but know your limits then expand them.  Have fun YPs! 

25 Pull-Ups (Overhand)

50 Dead lifts (135 lbs on the barbell)

50 Push-Ups

50 Box Jumps (24″ Platform:You can jump on the flat bench)

50 Floor Wipers*

50 Single-Arm Clean-and-Press (36 lb Kettle bell or 35 lb Dumbbell) 

25 Pull-Ups

*Lie on the floor or flat bench holding a 135-pound bar straight overhead – Keeping your legs straight, touch your feet to one plate, lower them to the floor in the center, and then raise them up to touch the other plate. That’s one repetition. Try it with an empty bar first, raising your feet until they’re about 8 inches away from the bar (since there’s no weight plate to touch).

Hi! I want to say thanks for an interesting site about a subject I have had an interest in for a long time now. I have been lurking and reading the posts avidly so just wanted to express my thanks for providing me with some very good reading material. I look forward to more, and taking a more active part in the discussions here.

Excellent Article!

If I could write like this I would be well chuffed ;-)

The more I read articles of such quality as this (which is rare), the more I think there might be a future for the Web. Keep it up, as it were.

I found this blog from Facebook (my friend posted it). After reading, I then clicked “Like” and also shared it. More power to you.

I am not the type to bother placing comments on peoples’ blogs usually nevertheless after stumbling across yours I thought I’d shoot a little note to give me a short break from work. I have to admit that I have gotten a little distracted going through and browsing a number of your articles… I should probably be doing work. Impressive stuff here and I’m going to be back in the future to see more. Best wishes!
