American Grit Fitness is designed to make you harder to kill.
We combine old-school weightlifting with new-school strength and conditioning principles in order to maximize your time spent inside (or outside) the gym. You'll squat, run, jump and throw weight around to ultimately become a faster, fitter you.If it's your first day here, jump in and hit the workout, or start from Day 1 of this cycle. Either way, you'll see strength, speed and stamina gains.Note: Thursday and Sunday are rest days. There will not be a workout posted on those days.
Day 10: Yes, it's going to suck
It's going to be another long day today, no matter what you choose to do. So make sure you hydrate, change your socks and get ready.
Conditioning Option 1:
I always recommend getting outside on the weekends. Like last week, if you have a place to hike outside, go for it. Pack a rucksack with 20-40 pounds and find the gnarliest trail you can for a hike that lasts between 4 and 6 hours. Bonus points if you can go uphill. Extra bonus points if you actually bring a tent and food and camp overnight.
Conditioning Option 2:
For time:
1 Mile Run (bonus points: complete all runs with sandbag on shoulder)
50 pushups
50 air squats
50 Sandbag over-shoulder tosses (recommend at least a 50 pound sandbag or other heavy object)
1 Mile run
30 Pushups
30 air squats
30 sandbag over-shoulder tosses
1 Mile run
20 pushups
20 air squats
20 over-shoulder throws
Optional: complete the workout with a buddy; use only one sandbag and have one person work while the other rests
