XN Workout Journal - Different From XN Gym

Need Bigger Tires

Ok guys, the XN gym has been a lively thread lately. I know there may be some people out there wanting to work out but don't know where to start or maybe are working out but have plateaued. So I've taken a little of my time and typed up a few of my workouts that I have done of recent. I have a ton more, but not enough time to type them right now. I know there are a lot of knowledgeable people on here when it comes to working out and nutrition, and I'm sure plenty of them are smarter than I. I am not a certified personal trainer, but I have been training since I was a freshman in high school and know plenty to keep myself in shape so I figured I can help some of you. Anyone else that wants to contribute workouts feel free to do so. I'll add more as I get time and can Link youtube videos on the lifts sometime to help people out that may not know how to otherwise do them. Lets keep this thread mainly workouts so they are easy to find, and keep the chatter over in the XN Gym thread :)
Also, anyone interested in high quality supplements or just has questions on anything I post in here, feel free to PM me!

so for those of you that do Xfit or think your pretty fit. Do this workout, i do it every month to see if i better myself. ill be doing it tonight before soccer :D

"Murph"

For time:
1 mile Run
100 Pull-ups
200 Push-ups
300 Squats
1 mile Run

if you have a 20lb vest wear it!

Another one i love to do that i did last week was

"death by tire flips"
Start a clock and flip a tire once. Rest the balance of the minute. At the start of the 2nd minute flip the tire twice. Rest the balance. On the 3rd minute flip the tire 3x. Continue this process until you can’t finish the set in 1 minute.

i've personally got up to 18 mins which is roughly around 150 tire flips.
