I wanted to get a good full body workout in today and try to hit all the major muscle groups. I find that the long cycle C & P's are one of the best full body exercises just by themselves and are even better when used as the base of a training program with other exercises added in for good measure. If you can find the right weight (not too light or heavy) then it is a great exercise for both strength and strength endurance.
My training looked like this today:
First PR - 15 Minutes
Long Cycle C & P - 24kg bells - 35 reps
Double Suitcase DL - 32kg bells - 35 reps
5 Minute Rest
Second PR - 10 Minutes
Chin Ups Ups - Body Weight - 35 reps
Swiss Ball Incline Presses - 32kg bells - 35 reps
I finished with 4 sets of farmers walks with the 32kg bells @ 150 feet each followed by 4 sets of 10 of shrugs with the 40kg bells. The farmers walks had my shoulders, traps and forearms screaming which made the shrugs that much harder.
My workout log for the last 17 years. Every workout that I have done since February of 2007 is listed here. I decided to move my training log from a notebook to online and needed a name for the URL. I was training with mostly Kettlebells back then, thus the name - Kettlbellrob.
