Today's workout - high volume

For the last month I have been focussing on developing strength through more nervous system action so low volume ánd long rests between sets, with the deadlift being one of my main exercises.

This week I am reintroducing more high volume with shorter rests to develop strenght through muscle action. Tonight my workout consisted of:
  1. Wide grip Chinups 70 reps in 10 mins
  2. Unstable pushups using the Omgym (similar to gymnastic rings) 70 in 10 mins
  3. Followed by my 'wheel of death' :) as I call it which is just a wheel on a rod that you extend out holding a plank style position
  4. Finishing with 10 mins of skipping and then 3 sun salutations. 40 mins in total
Post workout shake:
  • Hemp protein
  • Half a banana
  • Full teaspoon of coconut fat melted
  • Handfull of soaked almonds
  • Pinch of cinnamon
  • A glass of water
All blended up - beautiful!
