i tried it today- steve maxwell's 300 bw DVD challenge. goal is to complete 30 reps each of 10 different BW drills. there are 3 levels- beginner, intermediate, and advanced (the real workout is the advanced workout).
today for my first try i did a mix of the beginner and intermediate workouts- mostly beginner but a few advanced. the goal is to get it done in under 40 min. steve maxwell gets the advanced done on the DVD in 36 min or so.
i got mine done in 38:49!!!!! i didn't think i'd finish at all but i got it done in time. i then threw up a total of 5 times. it was REALLY hard. the advanced version is beyond my comprehension.
the specifics of the WO looked like this (drills are paired off going through reps between one and the other for pacing reasons, then a little water and shake-it-out-break before going on to the next pair)
1. pull ups
2. push ups
3. bw squats
4. v sit ups
5. bw rows
6. dive bombers (this was terrible!)
7. bw sumo squats (my hip flexibility blows mountain goats)
8. bicycles (steve maxwells bicycles are disgusting)
9. mountain climbers (FULL leg extensions w. hips locked out)
10. burpees (real ones, look up steve maxwell's version of the burpee)
This workout was terrible and tempestuous as the sea. i'm hooked. at least once a week maybe, MAYBE twice a week.
