Two Good Conditioning Workouts

Lately I've been trying to end my PL workouts with a finisher on about two days out of three. I have several reasons for doing this, but perhaps the biggest is that I enjoy the variety and I don't like feeling like I couldn't run a 5k and do fairly well at any given time. Thought they might be interesting to my readers (if I still have any) so here they are-
A) Take two 24kg kettlebells and carry them around the block. Immediately perform 50 burpees and 50 swings L/R. Collapse.
B) Alternating between swings and sledge strikes, perform 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 L/R.

Nothing fancy, but these will both get the job done. Happy Independence Day.

The internets are EVIL

Oddly enough, ever since I stopped spending so much time reading about working out on the internet, my working out has been better and more focused. Yesterday I was reminded of this when I read Dan John's new article on T-Nation and immediately wanted to go and try the 40 day program. I am remaining steadfast though and keeping going with the current plan. I will write it up sometime in the future.

Change of Format

Going to stop posting daily workouts as in fact I've already done. It has become a hassle, which was never the point of having this blog. I will still check in with updates and thoughts occasionally, but I just don't have the time or motivation to keep up with the workout posts.
