Video: More Outdoor Pushup Variations

A few days ago I posted Tara Scott’s Outdoor Pushup Variation video showing some extreme pushup drills. As amazing as they were, these pushup drills take it to another level.

Video: Outdoor Workout Pushup Variations

Basic outdoor body weight exercise should be a foundation for any workout program and Coach Tara has these primal workouts down to an art form. The pushup is a basic movement that strengthens so many parts of your body, the chest, tricep, shoulders, core etc and with her variations, begins to work more and more parts.

Strong Women: Bondi Beach Rope Climb

Bondi beach is a mile long beach on Australia’s east coast and a suburb of Sydney and this video shows a strong woman doing the bondi beach rope climb. I had posted a video earlier about another rope climb where the guy did it a number of times up and down without stopping. Same location, Bondi beach.

If you’re interested in getting a climbing rope, go to the source. This is the same place the people from Bondi purchased theirs.

Running Stairs For Fat Loss

I recently got this stair running workout emailed to me from Paul Becker and wanted to make it available. I’ve been waiting for the snow to melt so I can get back into stair running this spring. On the north bank of the Saskatchewan River here in Edmonton, there are a good number of different sets of stairs along the river valley trails. The stair running is perfect because of the varying angles. One set of stairs known as the Royal Glenora stairs has two built in rest points during it’s flight.

Running stairs is very taxing on the lungs and legs but is perfect for building endurance and ass. If you’re a regular reader of this blog and my posts, you’ll know that my trainer does not train legs, she trains ass.

Outdoor Exercise: 500 Pound Tire Flips

You’d think that tire flipping would be a simple thing, but find a 500 pound tractor tire and try it yourself. A used tractor tire can be used for many outdoor exercise routines including sledge hammer swings, a platform for box jumps or just picking it up and flipping it.

Have a look.
