DAILY EXERCISE PLAN: 21-27 August 2016

A synopsis of the military-style conditioning plan the author used during the week. His program is similar in design to those used by U.S. Marines and U.S. Special Operations Forces.
This week’s physical conditioning plan and daily workout sessions were designed and developed by myself to accomplish my fitness goal of maintaining a solid base of overall physical fitness. To sustain a solid base of overall physical conditioning I consider all components of physical fitness while conducting exercise planning.
A retired Marine, I am comfortable with designing my program in a manner similar to that of America's elite warriors. Their overall objective is to combine agility, endurance, power, speed and strength with combat skills to be applied in the defense of our nation.

FLAB-TO-FIT: Week 1 Transformation Workouts

This progressive health & fitness plan will help anyone get in shape and change their body composition in a gradual manner using proven methods.

Time to get up & go!

Its time to stop "thinking about" and start doing.
Doing, taking action, is the only way to get anything done. This is especially true when talking about changing your body composition and getting fit. There is absolutely no other way you can strip excess body fat and build muscle without exercise.
Don't ignore it or push it off any longer. Working out regularly coupled with healthy eating habits are the keys to transformation the old you to the new, fabulous you.

Flab-to-Fit: The Total Body Transformation Program

Based on the proven training methods that has produced results for millions of armed forces members, the Flab-to-Fit program will have you strengthening and reshaping your body in a progressive manner to maximize potential and minimize the risk of injury.
Thinking or intending to exercise will not improve physical fitness and reduce body fat. Only action or movement will overcome inaction or disuse. Don’t look backwards…you are not going that way. Look forward…set goals…then take steps to achieve them. Remember, an elephant is eaten one bite at a time and a voyage of 3,000 miles starts with one step.

STOP THINKING & WORRYING ABOUT YOUR BACKSIDE!!!

Athletes are not concerned about their butts; they’re focused on beating the competition. Their objective is on improved performance; therefore their workouts are designed to “better their game”. A very favorable consequence of their actions is the development of a phenomenal rump. Follow what they do and you’ll better both your game and your caboose.

POWER TRAINING FOR ATHLETIC & GLUTES DEVELOPMENT

This athletic power development training program includes two types of activities; plyometrics (jumping drills) and weight lifting. This training plan is designed to make the sports actions as explosive as possible.
Using a periodic approach; plyometric drills should start with high-frequency, low power drills such as jumping rope, a transition to moderate frequency, moderate power drills such as tuck jumps, and then low frequency, high power drills such as vertical jumps.
Similar to the periodic approach used for plyometrics, the training progression for weight-lifting goes from low-weight, high-repetitions to medium-weight, medium-repetitions to maximum-weight, low-repetitions and culminates in medium-weight, explosive repetitions.

CROSS-TRAINING SESSION

The ultimate cross-training session with multiple activities; calisthenics, running and swimming combined in a single workout.
Aim for you best effort during the calisthenics portion by doing the maximum amount of pull-ups in a single try and completing as many crunches as possible in 2 minutes.
The 3-mile run should be conducted in a controlled manner. Time is not a factor in this endurance activity.
Likewise, the swim in not intended to be a timed event. Prior to the cool-down, do 2 sets of treading water in a relaxed fashion.

WEEKLY TRAINING SCHEDULE

For this week’s workouts, all you'll need are access to a pull-up bar, a back pack, and access to a swimming pool. If you do not have access to a place to swim, substitute that portion of the workout with a jog mixed with calisthenics. If you’re new to fitness and working out, I suggest that you start at 25% of the provided routine and gradually progress from there. If you are in an excellent state of conditioning, you can supplement your existing routine with the workouts provided.
Days which are not presented, Sunday and Saturday, are rest days. Time and effort put into mastering strength and conditioning exercises require recuperation periods. Rest allows your body time to rebuild and strengthen muscles.

SPORTS CONDITIONING WITH BEACH VOLLEYBALL

Beach volleyball training is designed to develop the following components of physical fitness:
  • Agility – the ability to quickly change directions;
  • Coordination – the ability to combine simple movements into an efficient complex movement;
  • Flexibility – the ability to move joints through a full range of motion;
  • Power – the ability to quickly produce maximal force;
  • Speed – the ability to move quickly from one point to another;
  • Stamina – the ability to conduct relatively short intensive efforts of a prolonged period of time.
https://caloriebee.com/workout-routines/HOW-TO-BUILD-AN-ATHLETIC-BUTT-SERIES-PART-2

CROSS-TRAINING FOR BETTER FITNESS

Cross-training different energy systems is the best way to achieve a better level of fitness. Routines differ so the body can not adapt to one particular system. The more varied the "routine", the better the workout. Changing workout routines and energy systems causes the body to adapt to different modes and recover quicker. This will lead to a well-rounded state of physical conditioning and a higher fitness level.

QUICK WORKOUT

A relatively quick workout designed to enhance core stability, muscular strength and stamina. Sets of crunches were included to improve abdominal strength while planks were designed to upgrade core stability. Pull-ups were featured to remedy any upper body strength shortfalls.
Prior to the cool-down, an intense 5 minute circuit was included to develop total-body muscular endurance and stamina. The goal was to complete as many rounds as possible (AMRAP) of crunches, squat thrusts, push-ups and dorsal raises completing 5 reps of each exercise then immediately moving on to the next.
