Eric Carmen sang it best

All by myself.

Well it was going to be Nutria and Myself but he got scared and ran off with bootcamp when I mentioned we were gong to be doing pullups.

That’s how it went down at The Bunker. And i stayed to complete my workout until Bootcampers converged on me with 15 minutes left to go. Appreciate the support gents!

The Thang:

This was a ShieldLock accountability challenge bestowed upon me from Double Stuff for the next 5 weeks. Athlean-X Max Size workout. This Saturday gave us FIRE and ICE. As I missed the previous Saturday (DIABOL-X (El Diablo)) as well, i decided to add it in to help cover the time.

FIRE & ICE:,

INSTRUXIONS: Alternate “FIRE” (a circuit of exercises that must be completed in 1 minute) with “ICE” (an easier circuit of exercises that must
be completed within 1 minute) with the goal of completing all rounds without missing the stated rep targets for reach round. The total workout time is 10 minutes, but you have two choices of how you will get there. Pick the more difficult OPTION 1, and you’ll encounter 5 rounds of the dreaded “FIRE” circuit (better known as “Hang Ten”!) Opt for OPTION 2 and you’ll shave away two of those “FIRE” rounds only to replace them with a slightly more difficult variation of “ICE” (you knew I’d make it a little harder as part of the trade-off now didn’t you?). Either way you attack this, you’re going to have to work hard.

OPTION 1: 1 FIRE/ l ICE/ 1 FIRE/ l ICE/ 1 FIRE/ l ICE/ 1 FIRE/ l ICE/ 1 FIRE/ l ICE
FIRE
Sprawling Burpees x 10
Twisting Pistons x 5 to each side
Divebomber Pushups x 10

ICE
Pull ups x 5
Hanging Knee Raises x 5

EL DIABLO:

INSTRUXIONS: Whether you are an NXT grad, more than 8 months removed from this beastly workout … or attacking it for the very first time, the temperature is about to rise (as does hopefully your rep count) with the return of El Diablo. The following 10 exercises will each be performed for 1 minute. The entire workout will be completed in 10 minutes. Every rep you get in every exercise is counted towards your total score. At the end of the 10 minutes you add up all your reps and that is your score. No matter what kind of strategy you employ to get through this one, expect it to be grueling. They don’t call it the devil for nothing!

MINUTE 1: Pushups x 1 minute

MINUTE 2: Box Jumps x 1 minute

MINUTE 3: Diagonal Jumping Planks  x 1 minute

MINUTE 4: Diamond Cutter Pushups x 1 minute

MINUTE 5: Sprinter Lunges x 1minute

MINUTE 6: Squat Burpees x 1 minute

MINUTE 7: Reverse Corkscrews x 1 minute

MINUTE 8: KB Renegade Rows x 1 minute

MINUTE 9: KB Thrusters x 1 minute

MINUTE 10: KB Curls x 1 minute

NMM:

No one showed. I could have easily got back in my car and went home or curled up in the bushes and slept until it was time for name-o-rama, but i didn’t. I still put the work in, and max effort at that. Who gives a crap if anyone else showed, its You vs. You. You are only cheating yourself for not showing up for a workout, so why cheat yourself when you actually do show?

Aye!
