Playground Workout - Variety Workout

When I feel like something a little more out of the ordinary than your usual workout, I like to head up the road to the local park and get in a great Aussie Fatblast style outdoors workout

There's a couple of great sets of playground equipment full of all different sorts of things that kids play on.

Maybe I'm just a big kid at heart but I love my playground workout when I get one in.

Just check out todays set:

Light bodyweight warm up of incline push ups and recline rows x 2 sets

Chin Ups or Pull Ups variations playing around with grip - close grip, wide grip, mixed grip you name it supersetted with Decline Push Ups

I knocked out 10 sets but let me confress that the rep total wasn't exactly 10 for every set (more like 5 for the last few rounds!) and the form wasn't exactly all the way down on the last couple of sets - although I did make up for it with holding at the top of the chin up and hanging at the bottom for 5 seconds each set.

Still a bloody hard workout and I can tell I'm gonna be sore tomorrow and the workout was only 3 hours ago!

Check it out for yourself - 15 minutes and that was it and I was puffed and sore.

No weights needed - just your own bodyweight and some playground equipment.

no more excuses for not working out.

Get to it and don't let fear hold you back...

Get Outside and Burn Body Fat With This Fatblasting Workout

I have just had this article published by ezinearticles.com.

My favourite training location for getting a sweat on and burning some of that good ol' body fat is to get outside and get stuck into some outdoor training.

If you have not done much training recently, make sure you first have a clearance from your doctor and substitute the sprints that I am about to give you for some fast power walking.

If you are in a regular training pattern and with no injuries, there are no excuses - it is time to work and burn fat!

As always you need a good warm up to ensure that you are not going to injure yourself. Try jogging up the hill and jogging down, perform 10 Squats and 10 Push Ups then jog backwards up the hill and forwards down again. Repeat this warm up three times.

Now you should be warm and ready for action.

Begin with a Bear crawl up the hill. To do this get down on all fours and crawl like a bear it is that simple! As for all exercises, make sure you are sucking in your belly button to protect your lower back. When you get to the top, jog backwards down the hill and sprint to the top. Make sure there are no obstacles in your way when jogging backwards downhill.

Once you are at the top, crab walk down the hill. To do this, sit on the ground facing downhill with your hands facing forward. Now lift your backside off the ground and walk yourself down the hill with your hands and feet. That is one set. Your goal is to repeat this five times through.

Once you are done, and if you still have got some energy in the tank you can try the crab walk uphill, bear crawl downhill, sprint uphill, and jog backwards downhill to complete one set. Repeat this set five times.

Survived that one? Your next challenge is to make your way to the grandstand or bleachers if your park has one. Starting on the bottom step, plyometric jump your way up the stairs to the top. Make sure you land soft on the balls of your feet and squat down as you land, so you are ready to go straight into the next plyometric jump. Your back should not hurt when you do these. Walk back down and repeat this five times if it is a small grandstand or if it is a big grandstand jump all the way to the top and that should have you toasted.

Of course, you want to finish off with a good stretch that will stretch all of the muscles that you have just worked - a full body stretch where you hold each muscle for at least twenty to thirty seconds.

This outdoor training session can be performed anywhere with a hill. It is a great fat blasting routine to ensure you burn fat in minimal time.
