All my movements will be performed with an explosive speed trying to move the weight as fast as possible with control. I will rest as long as needed between sets. I do not want my heart rate to completely relax. I will keep it elevated throughout the entire workout. As I get more conditioned I will cut my rest time shorter.

I am finishing my workouts within a 60 minute time period which is good for this week. I would like to push that for the following week to 50 minutes to push my heart-rate up a bit higher. So far I feel real good with my workouts and depending how I feel I am thinking of sprinting the prowler later tonight since I will be unable to train tomorrow. Two of our girls are competing in a figure competition so it will be a long day and I will not be able to get a workout in.

Hi,
I didn’t know you trained with Scott Abel.
I have never trained with Scott however I have been reading and applying his stuff for years with my own training as well as clients. I have been friends with one of his guys Kevin Weiss since we meet out at a kettlebell certifications years back.
Scott has great stuff and I love his knowledge
That is great news!
