MHC - Chisel Agilty

Enjoyed this tonight - no major improvements but glad to rest hands a little as that med ball took its toll on my wrists and forearms yesterday!

MHC - Hammer Build Up & 15 Min Leg Hammer

So substituted these for Iso Hammer which I really didn't like and this was good fun.

I went pretty light on the weights only used 3kg for everything except the pull over 5kg but I think I needed a lighter day after 3 heavy heavy days. It really is a total body routine and with heavier weights be a great workout.

I chased it with 15 min leg hammer and that is a great little workout. You do the whole thing with a med ball in your hand I only used a 3kg/7lb ball and wow I was still shaking when I lifted my water for my post workout shake!!

A really great routine and for me lots of upper body work too and my upper body will limit the weight of the ball to really work my legs till I get stronger! But considering all the leg stuff in the main problem thats probably a good thing!

I have to say I think both the 15min routines on the deluxe dvd have been marketed poorly - They are so much more than just a 'leg' or ' glute' workout - they are great little add on routines when you want a little extra to the 30-40 mins. They are also not very 'leg' & 'glute' specific as the name implies so that can set you up for disappointment - in my opinion.
They are great routines and I think the deluxe disc is well worth getting but the titles of the two 15 mins ones are very misleading.

MHC - Chisel Cardio and 15 min Glute Chisel

So loved this cardio today, I upped my weights and also got personal best on my burpees wahoo! Boy was I sweating today omg!!

My deluxe dvd arrived today so as it was on the calendar as an option - I added the 15 min Glute Chisel and wow!!!

I was pretty tired after 3 heavy leg days but I thought I'd see how it went and it was tough on very tired legs. I did about half of it overall and I was toast but the last move - 1 leg bridge on a medicine ball and for a start I couldn't get my but off the ground!! I pushed really hard and after a real real struggle I managed only 4 reps on each side - Chisel wanted 25!!! OMG x 10!!!!

And just a word of warning this isn't just Glutes at all - it's lower body plus you have a medicine ball in your hand so you get a shoulder workout in there too!!!
Brutal but brilliant!!!

It took me to the hour which I was really chuffed about and with my stretch afterwards I burnt over 600 cals!!!

MHC - Max Hammer Strength

Another good one, legs were quite tired and the one arm rows felt hard tonight after chisel balance yesterday.

Enjoyed though as usual.

MHC - Wk 4 Chisel Balance

Enjoyed this again tonight and boy this works you!!

That last move is a beast and its so hard to stop the sweat dripping!

MHC - Chisel Iso Strength

Loved this but it is pretty brutal - those holds just make your muscles scream!!!!

3 weeks completed and I love what changes are starting to happen with my body, especially my upper body which for me has always been hard to improve so I'm super happy!!!

This Hammer and Chisel is fast becoming my all-time favourite!!! I'm not following the eating plan completely but I'm trying to keep my cals down to 1800 and eating clean and I'm still seeing changes = wahoo!!!

MHC - Hammer Plyo

Enjoyed this again tonight -was thinking it was chisel cardio all day but then a quick check and doh!!! its hammer plyo!

Great workout, improved my numbers and my weights ;)

The chin up crunch squat - I modified and did 3 chin crunch then 3 squat jumps then 3 chin ups which meant I got more done as using the chin up max assist band is time consuming. I may try jumping chin ups next time instead.
May also doing jumping pull up to speed things up on the burpee pull ups as I can only 3 done in the time frame using the assist :(
