On-The-Road Bodyweight Circuits

I've been on the road a full week now and using body weight circuits as my sole source of exercise. This is the first I've gone without weights in a long time, and I was a little concerned that I would get "soft".

Now that I'm at my sisters, I do have access to an exercise ball and want to start putting that to good use. Craig Ballantyne of Turbulence Training put together an Advanced Interval Circuit body weight regime that I'm going to switch over to today. This circuit seems exponentially more difficult than what I put together myself (Mine seemed pretty difficult when I was putting pen to paper a couple of weeks ago. Go figure).

I'll perform each circuit with no rest between exercises; rest 1 minute between circuits and repeat for a total of 3 circuits.

Circuit A

• Y Squat - 15 reps
• Mountain Climber - 12 reps per side
• Pushups - 8 reps
• Burpees - 8 reps
• Squat Thrusts - 8 reps

Circuit B

• Waiters Bow - 12 reps
• Spiderman Climb - 12 reps per side
• Push-up - Max Reps - 1 (1 rep short of failure)
• Stability Ball Jackknife - 12 reps
• Jumping Jacks - 60 reps
• Plank with Arms on Ball - 30 seconds

Train hard; stay strong; happy trails!

Peace.
