Subversive Fitness: Day 76 of 360

Challenging yourself with a variety of unorthodox weighted movements takes precedence today.

Written by Greg Walsh Last updated on April 7, 2017

Day 76 of 360

2 aggressive rounds of:

1 minute extended-arm mace hold
1 minute mace front pendulum
1 minute hand-to-hand tire smash
1 minute battle rop
:20 sec. rest

Weights for hold, pendulum, and tire smash are self-scaled and challenging- test yourself, and also choose weights that allow for uninterrupted/ nearly uninterrupted sets. If rest is needed before the end of each round, keep it short and specific (3 breaths or less). Hustle in transitions between movements.

And then, “Time under tension”:

Banded hinge + 50 Kettlebell kayak @ 25lb. W, 35lb. M

Lock into a lightly banded hinge position with tension and focus, and do some work. Work to “True” failure (loss of physical positioning) not “Relative” failure (loss of mental endurance). If time reaches two minutes (in hinge position), you may stop if desired. If time is under two minutes, do it again, and accumulate at least two total minutes.

Our “kayak” is a full-range Russian Twist and involves trunk rotation and a touch of the implement to the ground on both sides of the body.

L + R side touch = 1 rep.

About Greg Walsh

Greg Walsh is a product of counter-culture, and remains immersed in it to this day. The discovery of BMX bike riding and hardcore music in early adolescence opened a door of questioning and critical-thinking that has paved the way for everything since. Action sports, hardcore music, martial arts, and strength and conditioning have all proven to be lifesavers, not simply pastimes, and contributing to each in the best ways humanly possible is Greg’s daily mission.

Wolf Brigade is headquartered in Rochester, New York, and is the product of Greg's lengthy training experience and varied physical backgrounds. Their website chronicles and details daily training, and contains hundreds of videos, pictures, quotes, and pieces of writing. Greg’s non-fitness writing website, War of Attrition, accepts subscribers and his first novel, Theft of the Age, will be available everywhere in the fall of 2015.
