3 Minute Squat Challenge
Today is the big day in our 4 part series of bodyweight challenges... 3 Minute Squat Challenge OK this one is probably going to feel a bit different than the other two. Push Ups for Chest (front delts, triceps and core stabilization) was pretty tough, but more of a muscle ENDURANCE event Chin Ups for back (rear delts and biceps) required more POWER than push ups and was probably the toughest of the three to complete even half the reps of Push Ups Squats for Quads, Hamstrings, even calves (lower back and core stabilization) will be more of a SPEED STRENGTH challenge. So far in Challenge #3 of 4 we have covered 3 different exercises and 3 different training techniques for 3 totally different outcomes even though we are limited to our bodyweight and our time (3 minutes). The other constant is we are always moving our bodies thru space, rather than moving weights through space which is pound for pound always easier than moving the same bodyweight through space. It’s weird but true. Think about this. You can do a Bench Press with say a max weight of 315 pounds. Now if you were 315 pounds do you think you could do the same amount of reps with your feet on a bench for push ups? It’s doubtful. Even if you can, you aren’t…
