ABOUT THE PROGRAM
This program was designed as a way to build a solid operator base of fitness. We pulled material from these sources: Mark Twight (gymjones.com), Rob Shauls (mtnathlete.com), and Greg Glassman (crossfit.com), and Dan John (Google him). We combined the idea behind the Gym Jones 3 month operator fitness program, a lot of Mountain Athlete workouts and some Crossfit WOD and turned them into a 4 month workout program that has numerous options each day so that you could use it for 2-3 rotations and not become bored with it. Our goals specifically in making this program are to be able to DL 2.5x, Front Squat 1.5x, Bench 1.5x, Military Press 1x our BW and still be the cardio shape to run 3 miles easily in under 20:00. Also, we will have a score of at least 200 on the SSST. Whatever your individual goals are just tweak this program towards them in order to achieve them within 4 months. With Gym Jones selling out and becoming commercialized we wanted to put a program into place while we could still pull workouts from the site without having to pay. Mountain Athlete is a great new reference for Team guys, especially Lead Climbers for sport/job/event specific workouts. This website is a great source for new workouts that

you can add continuously into this program. They started in February 2007 and are based in Jackson, Wyoming. Most of the Sport Specific workouts were created by us, the Horsemen, and if you don’t like them then fuck you, you’re a pussy. These are really the only original material in this entire document almost everything else was copied from existing programs run by professionals who know what they’re doing and cobbled together by us. The suggested playlist was created by us and we stand by it. You will be able to lift more for a longer period of time if you listen to what we’ve suggested and again, if you don’t like it, fuck you, you’re a pussy. We subscribe to the philosophy that Team guys need to be physically ready to handle

    The time for which research will be taken from is the 1970s onwards as this is reliable in comparison to older research. There will be eight key topics that may also contain subheadings. Firstly, what actually is success in bodybuilding? ‘Bodybuilding.com’ believes “… the Mr. Olympia (Appendix 1) is the pinnacle of physical accomplishment...” With all the promotion and documentation around the competition, it’s hard to disagree. This project will focus on the professional (pro) aspect of bodybuilding and what creates an IFBB (Appendix 2) bodybuilder. Female bodybuilding has risen in popularity, but due to a lack of research and the small size of this project, only male competitors will be addressed. The purpose of this project is to provide readers with the details on what they can do to become a successful bodybuilder. Due to personal interest in the sport the hope is to expand personal knowledge and to share this. My opinion on the research is distinguished in the text; it is presented in italics so it stands out. Readers should be open-minded and draw their own conclusions, as bodybuilding is subjective and there are many debates, it is up to individuals to understand themselves.…

    I attended a TAMU Equestrian Team show on the morning of the fifteenth of September. I got the opportunity to see firsthand how a horseback competition is run and judged. I also got to observe a typical reining show and saw the different formations that were graded. I was amazed to see the horse spin around several times and still can gallop in a straight line afterwards. Most of the athletes received a score range between 690-720. I personally do not know what the score means, but I did notice that the athletes that performed more gracefully in their formation will receive a higher score than those that performed less gracefully. In addition, I also got to witness the strong bond between the girls on the equestrian team. They were cheering…

    Ever wanted to ride a 1200 pound animal at 40 mph dodging poles with only a piece of metal and a couple straps of leather to control it? I have been running poles for more than three years and all my lessons and clinics had something in common. There was constantly the same advice being given. The best part of running a pole pattern is that you can constantly improve. The pattern always stays the same, 6 poles set down the middle of the arena, all 21 feet apart, you must run all the way down, turn the last pole, weave back towards gate and then the opposite way, then you let your horse run back.…

    When me and my partner Luther decided we wanted to adopt a baby girl, the first thing that we needed was to consider the many option, expectations, and obstacles that we might face. After setting up an appointment and meeting with a lawyer specializing in adoption, many thing became clear. We would need to give serious consideration to the health of the fetus prior and post birth. We would also need to have a thorough understanding of the babies maternal mothers care so that we can have an idea of what challenges if any that the baby may face.…

    So we started the program and firstly in our group we started doing upper body work which was fine, it did get tough in some of the exercises we did mainly because we tried to do much but luckily we didn’t get any injuries so we carried on with it and with that I noticed improvements in my upper body strength within that period of two weeks. Also I was working at that time so I would have gone in the gym more times but I could due to that but also because of where I work and the department I work in, you’re having to constantly take out cages and pallets, the cages can weigh up to 500kg and the pallets can weigh to 1000kg and above and that also helped as well with improving my body strength and fitness as well so that also helped. The strengths of this was that my upper body strength has improved and that I am able to do the same exercises quicker. And that I have got a better muscle definition now to my arms and shoulders now. The weaknesses of this was that I wasn’t able to come in any more due to engagements with work and also course work and rugby training. Also I was getting very fatigued with my upper body and I was getting the occasional strain which affected my performance at work and college. Improvements and changes to the fitness program:…

    My fitness plan was to focus on strength and cardio. I chose a powerlifting workout plan that focused on the three compound lifts, this helped with my strength. I also ran 3 – 4 times a week to try and improve my cardio. Before every workout I would do Static stretching and after every workout I would do dynamic stretching. I would exercise 6 days a week doing each compound lift 2 times a week. Progressive overload is something I would every other week. I was doing a split routine so my workouts were 45 minutes maximum. After my main lift I would do a bunch of accessories that would help me with the lift, using everything from resistance bands to free-weights.…

    CrossFit describes its strength and conditioning program as “constantly varied, high intensity, functional movement,"[4] with the stated goal of improving fitness (and therefore general physical preparedness), which it defines as "work capacity across broad time and modal domains."[5] Workouts are typically short—20 minutes or less—and intense, demanding all-out physical exertion. They combine movements such as sprinting, rowing, jumping rope, climbing rope, flipping tires, weightlifting, carrying heavy objects, and many bodyweight exercises; equipment used includes barbells, dumbbells, gymnastics rings, pull-up bars, kettlebells, medicine balls, and boxes for box jumps.[6][7][8] These elements are mixed in numerous combinations to form prescribed "Workouts of the Day" or "WODs". Hour-long classes at affiliated gyms, or "boxes," typically include a warm-up, a skill development segment, the high-intensity WOD, and a period of individual or group stretching. Performance on each WOD is often scored and/or ranked to encourage competition and to track individual progress. Some affiliates offer additional classes, such as Olympic weightlifting, which are not centered around a WOD.[9]…

    I have a low lung capacity due to a dip in my chest wall, called Pectus excavatum. The dip was removed four years ago with surgery. Now my lung capacity is about fifty to sixty percent. By being a middle blocker I need to be quick and have a high vertical. The workout I have personalized for myself will increase my endurance by having short breaks and fast moments. I set the workouts up by having legs one day, and core and arms the next. By setting it up this way I will be able to have a proper resting period. The ladders will increase my speed and foot work. Jumping rope and the leg workouts will increase my vertical. I kept the same workouts the same but increase the amount a little each day. By having small increases to the workouts will help you build up strength without harming your body. When I use weights in my workout it is usually lite due to the game of volleyball. The reason I would work out on my own would help the player not to feel rushed or get sloppy. It is better to be proper when working out, so no harm is done to the body. Having the personalized workouts, it would help make time to focus more on the team and not individual needs. All the players get what they need in their own…
