Barbell Floor Press Challenge Week 50

by

I did not go to the gym this week, but that didn't stop me from doing cardio and functional strength workouts. Here is a summary of what I did: 

Stairclimbing

Dips

Inclined Pushups

Snow Shoveling

 

I have an iron gym workout bar that I used for my functional strength training exercises; this inexpensive piece of equipment is a must have for times when you want to srength train at home, on business trips or vacations. I did the dips and inclined pushups between stairclimbing sets.

Most of you are probably recovering from the winter storm that has made its way across the continental United States over this past weekend.

Clearing a safe path for pedestrians means getting out the snow shovel and doing some serious snow removal. Packed snow can be very heavy, and continuous repetitions of "scoop, lift and toss" make for a good functional strength training workout. But a word of caution to anyone thinking about snow shoveling: if you are not in good physical shape, you should avoid shoveling snow until you have consulted with a health care professional. Shoveling snow can increase heart attack risk in people with a familial history of heart disease.

When I return to the gym, I'll do the Olympic barbell overhead press and other exercises at the same level that I have recently.

I'll keep you posted.

 

But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. "Do not fear what they fear ; do not be frightened." 1 Peter 3:14
