Achieving my Long Term Goals

GerryRyan

I'm after getting into all the bodyweight and functional strength training from talking to a few others and finding the Ross Enamait site and books.

I have a lend of the Underground Guide, and it makes more sense than the countless posts and articles I've read on bodybuilding.com and T-Nation.

I've always made excuses for not training or skipping it (no time, money for gym, can't follow a plan).

But now I have specific long term goals to stick to:

• 500 x BW Sqauts (Hindu)
• 150 x Burpees
• 100 x Push-Ups (Strict, chest to ground)
• 50+ x Knuckle Push-Ups
• 25+ x Pull-Ups (I'm struggling to do 5 at the minute)
• 15 x 1 Leg BW Squat (both legs)
• 15 x HandStand Push-Ups
• 5 minute x Plank
• 5 minute x Wrestlers Bridge

I tested myself earlier on, this is how many I can do in a row:

• BW (Hindu) Squats = 150
• Burpees = 25
• Push-Ups = 25 (in 30 seconds)
• Knuckle Push-Ups = 10
• Pull-Ups (full ROM) = 6
• 1 Leg Squat = 0
• HandStand Push-Up = 1
• Plank = 90secs
• WB = 40 secs

I am willing to stick at it and see this through - to prove a point to myself if nothing else.

Question is, for the high-rep exercises, what's the best way to go about it?

• Should I try to do all the exercises each day?
• How do I structure it?
• What should my work to rest ratio be?
• Is it just a case of building it up by doing them the whole time and setting smaller goals?

eh not so sure tbh but i think you could do worse than check out www.crossfit.com or www.gymjones.com. Alot of their workouts have alot of high rep stuff in them and it does give a structure to your training.
You could also work at building up some strenght by trying one hand press-ups etc.
