Nice that's pretty cool actually, how much room do you have to push?
I always felt the most benefit going heavier but shorter, especially if you are restricted indoors. You can use it as a warm up (lighter) or a finishing lift (heavier).
It's a pretty good space. I'm bad at estimating distances, but maybe 15-20 yards?
I would probably be using it as a finisher, seems to make most sense to me to do aerobic stuff before lifting, but conditioning after.
Any thoughts on technique? Or is it pretty straghtforward? Looks easy, but I've learned a lot about basic barbell lifts over the last few years, so maybe prowling is the same.
I am kind of losing my morning mojo and keep running into scheduling conflicts, was thinking about going to a more frequent lifting schedule in the evening. Maybe back to a two lift a day type plan for a while. Maybe I'll give it a try next week. Any thoughts?
Well, I haven't been able to put anything into practice this year, so I hesitate to suggest anything, but my plan has been to adopt a few lifts, greater frequency protocol too, so I think it could work for you.
I want to try a simple A/B alternation, so if I miss a day, it's no big deal. Something like:
A
Aerobic (cycling)
Squat
Overhead Press
Pull-up
B
Conditioning (hills or prowler or intervals on a rower)
Deadlift
Row
Bench Press
If I miss more than a few days, then I do A even if I did it in my last workout, because I value those lifts the most.
I'm also going to try low reps for a while, just 2-3, maybe EMOM like you've done. I have a hunch that low reps will work better with higher frequency training. The idea is keep daily intensities pretty constant for all fitness modalities, with minimal recovery necessary, and just let consistency work its magic.
I was going to start every day with cycling, but it's too boring to do on a daily basis, although I'm going to try to commute more on my bike.
Been walking to the park barefoot a lot. Surprisingly, my plantar calluses are still relatively intact.
