Outlining a workout plan for a specific date.

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
  • Conditioning Option 3:
  • For time:
  • 400m walking lunge
  • 400m bear crawl
  • 400m burpee broad jumps
