Working The Heavy Bag

Oct 15, 2008 @ 05:31 pm by wayne

Training on the heavy bag is a great option if you want to loose fat and increase your power on your punchs or kicks. If you haven’t had any boxing or martial arts instruction, it would be a great idea to get some before your journey on the heavy bag. As with any training, start slowly and work on your technique before you start puttin a lot of power into your bagwork.

Some of your options include building up to doing 2 or 3 minute rounds on the bag with 30 seconds rest between rounds. Another high intensity option would be to work all out for 10 seconds and then go easy for the nextr 20 seconds. alternate this pattern until you reach your goal time of about 4 minutes.

It is best if you use wraps and bag gloves to protect your hands and wrists and as always listen to your body.

Dr John Berardi’s Nutrition Tips

Oct 13, 2008 @ 11:16 am by wayne

Here’s another nutrition tip from Dr John Berardi, author of the Precision Nutrition system.
Tip #6
The Organic Debate
by Dr. John Berardi

The average person should consume two pieces of fruit and three servings of vegetables per day as a minimum. Athletes probably need even more – I recommend 10-15 servings per day for each of my athletes. Expert often spend too much time arguing about organic vs. regular fruits and veggies. I agree that raw, organic fruits and vegetables are best since they have a higher micronutrient count, but any fruits and veggies are better than none! Get sufficient fruits and vegetables in your diet before worrying about whether they’re organic or not. Once you’ve done that, worry on.

Olympic Style Lifting

Oct 07, 2008 @ 05:37 pm by wayne

If you include any Olympic style lifts in your training (cleans etc,) it is important to keep the reps low. The damands of these lifts are such that the maximum number of reps in one set should be no higher than 6. I usually go no higher than 3 or 4.
