This week includes a modified version a workout shared by the wrestling encyclopedia himself Mark Hatmaker. Mark is a gentleman and a scholar, and I will be training with him next week at Karate College 2017. Can’t wait!
Cabal Fang Workout of the Week #61: DOWN AT THE BAR AND GRILL
- Get yourself a bar. Whatever you have available will work fine — an empty weight bar or a weighted workout bar is best, but a wrecking bar is fine (even two dumbbells if you have to, just go lighter than you think you should at first blush). I used a #20 digging bar. Whatever you pick up, do not put down for the length of the workout. Do 25 Military Presses, 18 Walking lunges (bar at waist or chin, your call), 25 Knuckle Push-ups (squeeze that bar!), and 18 more Walking Lunges. Do that 3 more times. That’ll be 4 sets total, a grand total of 100 presses, 144 Walking Lunges, and 100 Knuckle Push-ups. Take as few 12-count breaks as you need to finish.
- Now grill yourself. Not literally of course, but figuratively. Think of a time when said or did something that makes you feel ashamed. Analyze it completely, get down to the who-what-when-where-and-why of it. No excuse-making. Be honest with yourself. What can you learn from this dissection? Have you atoned? If not, should you? Did others forgive you, or have they held grudges? Were you ever punished? Were the consequences just? How do you think others who make similar mistakes deserve to be treated?
