Gratitude Practice

/

Of all the things that I have brought into my daily life, purposeful gratitude has been one of the most powerful.  You can read about gratitude from countless coaches, spiritual leaders, motivational speakers, athletes and other successful people and how it has helped to keep them grounded and ultimately leads to their success.  This is not a new concept, certainly not my own and not original.  However, it is foreign to many people and overlooked even by some who understand and appreciate it when life gets really busy.  The one constant throughout literature, coaching, spiritual texts or actual practice is that it is extremely powerful and responsible for many people's success and happiness.

For me, gratitude is an underlying theme that I try to have in my day, every day.  If this is a new concept to you, living in gratitude is simply being thankful for what you have right now.  It is fine to set goals and have dreams and desires, but without being thankful for what you have right now, those dreams may never be realized.

The most simple gratitude practice is something that I try to do every morning.  When the alarm goes off, I swing my feet out of the bed and when the first one hits the floor, I say Thank and when the second hits the floor I say You.  So I walk to the bathroom to brush my teeth saying Thank You with every step.  This alone starts the day off with gratitude and I find it easier to remain grateful for everything through the day.

I have read many other people's description of their gratitude practice.  Many are similar to one another with a few variations.  I have taken a few things from each one and developed a deeper practice that we do at the RRL often, but we should do it more often.  I like doing this with the group, but I will also find 6-8 minutes in the day to practice this by myself.  Here is how I do it:

1. Find a place where you will not be disturbed and set a timer for the time you have set aside for this practice.  6-8 minutes will get the job done, 12-15 is awesome, 20-30 may be a little much at first.  I like setting a timer because you can let go of many of the thoughts about being late, losing track of time, or wonder about how long you have been in this state.  It may not be necessary for you, but it really helps me.

2. Sit or lay down comfortably

3. Start with your eyes open and get your breathing under control.  Go to a 5 count in-5 count out.  This rhythm should be comfortable.  As I am breathing, I think about filling my belly full of air at my belly button, then feeling my chest rise, filling my lungs and then ultimately filling up the entire chest cavity all the way to my collar bones and then letting it out feeling all those same parts falling effortlessly back to rest.  I go for about 5-10 cycles of this breathing through my nose as long as that is comfortable.

4. Check yourself for tension.  I find that if I scan my body from head to toe, feeling for tension, I will notice that I have it in my forehead, behind my ears, in my jaw,  and shoulders.  I allow those areas to relax and the tension released.  I open my hands and give my legs a gentle shake. 

5. Start with a small circle around your heart.  Think about how grateful you are for your heart and your health.  Stay there for a few seconds and think about how your heart is keeping you alive and healthy.

6. Move that circle out a little larger to include your physical body.  Be thankful for your health, the ability to move and exercise, grow stronger and anything else that comes to mind about why you are thankful for a healthy body.  If you are currently not where you want to be physically, have experienced an injury or are sick, be ultra thankful for your physical body, its ability to heal and the fact that you are on the road to recovery.  Stay positive.

7. Move that circle out a little larger, beyond your physical body and bring in the most important people in your life.  Maybe this is your wife and children, maybe mom and dad...whoever is closest to you, bring them into this circle and think of them.  Be grateful for each of these people.  Keep it small right now, maybe 5 people at the most.  Be thankful that those people are in your life.  See their face, visualize something that they do that makes you smile.  Be thankful for them. Be thankful for their health and happiness.

8. Once you have clearly seen the people in this circle, push it out larger to include the next level of individuals in your life.  This may be parents, uncles, aunts, cousins, mother in law, nieces, nephews...the next closest group of people.  See them clearly and be thankful for them even if it is brief.

9. Push the circle out again and include what you consider to be the next group of people closest to you in your life.  This could be your friends, work associates, business partners, a coach, a mentor, whoever that is for you.  See them clearly and be thankful for what they ave brought to your life.

10. Push out again to include opportunities.  Maybe this is your job, maybe it is the ability to provide for your family.  If you are not where you want to be in life, do not think about that.  Think only about what you are thankful for.  If your job is not what you currently want, be thankful for the fact that you have it.  Remain thankful for what you have. 

At this point, you are probably getting really close to the end of the time you have allowed for this practice.  If you find yourself thinking about other things, return to your thought that you were the most thankful for.  You can always return to your breath also.  Simply go to 5 count breath in, 5 count out.

I check my body for tension again and try to shake it away gently if I find any.  as I hear the alarm go off, I will lay there for a second and then slowly sit up, open my eyes and gently and quietly return to the world. 

I find that this practice is so incredibly good for maintaining a positive outlook through the day, slowing down and eliminating the feeling of being rushed, and most importantly puts me in a state of underlying gratitude.

It is almost like a computer that is running a program that is minimized.  You dont really see it when you look at the screen but it is running in the background.  It can be a positive program like this gratitude practice or a negative program like negative self talk, ungratefulness, jealously, resentment, or entitlement.  Negative thoughts lead to negative outcomes.  Positive thoughts attract more positive.

This practice is incredibly important to me and I try to do it every single day.  It is not always the same and yours may be completely different in the things that you are grateful for and think about during this time.  It really doesn't matter what you are thankful for, just that you are thankful and grateful consciously. 

This is powerful.  Do it every day for a month and I guarantee that you will see major changes in your life no matter where you are or where you want to be.

Let me know how it is going for you.

Good luck.

Good fun this morning with a small group at the RRL

1. Wim Hof Breathing + Pushups

2. Pistols 6-6-6-6-6-6

3. Team Sled Race

We got out the sleds and loaded them with 45's.  We then chose 2 other exercises and hit a workout that looked like this:

While Partner 1 pushes the sled down and back in the driveway, Partner 2 completes 5 calories on the Assault Bike and Partner 3 completes 10 Vups.  Then, Partner 1 moves to Vups, Partner 2 moves to the sled and Partner 3 moves to Assault bike. 

We did this as an AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) for 15 minutes. 

This was a tough one, but a good way to ease into the weekend without being too sore but getting lots of exercise and movement.

Great to be back in the garage this morning.  While I truly love waking up early and starting my day off in the dark, on the water, I also love waking up and starting my day off in the dark, ready to get after a workout.

I am fortunate to be able to live a life in balance and enjoy both of these activities.  The good thing is that they are not mutually exclusive.  When I start the day off before the sun comes up on the water, I almost always get my workout in.  If I fish later, I workout in the morning.

Today, I chose a good one to get back into the groove:

Weston

5 rounds for time of:

Row, 1000 m

Farmers Walk (Dumbbell), 45 lbs, 200 m

Waiter Walk (Right Arm), 45 lbs, 50 m

Waiter Walk (Left Arm), 45 lbs, 50 m

Use dumbbell for waiter walk.

U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration Special Agent Michael E. Weston, 37, assigned to the Kabul Country Office in Kabul, Afghanistan, was killed on October 29, 2009, when the helicopter he was in crashed in western Afghanistan. He is survived by his wife Cynthia Tidler, parents Judy Zarit and Steve Weston, and brother Thomas.

This was an outstanding forearm blaster.  Wow.  The farmer's walk went from mildly uncomfortable in rounds 1 and 2 to a serious mental grind.  Great workout.  41:23

Woke up this morning at 5 and got ready to go fishing. 

We found snookzilla.  The biggest snook I have ever seen and then I saw one bigger...hooked it but lost it.

Here are some shots

We came in during the hottest part of the day because the fishing was slow.  I resisted the temptation to take a nap and went out to the hot parking lot and found a little shade.  Before I left my room, I thought about what workout I would do.  I started to waver then saw the deck of cards.  I grabbed it and knew that I would get something in today.

It looked like this

Spades=Kettlebell Swings

Clubs=Pushups

Diamonds= squats

Hearts=situps

My good friend, David McLeaf joined me.

Tomorrow, I hope we get a few more big gigantic dinosaur snook and another great workout

July 16, 2016

I have been on the road for a few day.  The purpose of the trip was to attend the biggest fishing convention in the World and meet with all my sponsors, partners and prospective sponsors. 

I saw lots of old friends and made some new ones.  It was a great year!  All our sponsors were very happy and we made some new relationships.

Perhaps the highlight of the entire trip was meeting this gentleman who told me that he had found Saltwater Experience through my other show, Fitness Truth.  I was surprised to hear this, but even happier to hear him tell me that he had changed his life and lost over 100 lbs after watching the show.  He then started a family.

I have always said that I did Fitness Truth to try to reach people just like him and if I could make a difference in just one person's life, then it would all be worth it.  Well, that day came, and he told me how important the show was to his life and how it forever changed it for the better.

This made me really happy.

I was able to get workouts in every day.  Mostly, the deck of cards at 5 am with some Wim Hof breathing, but today, me and Builder, built a little gym in the parking lot of the crappy hotel we are staying in. 

Notice the Rogue portable pullup bar slung over a tree branch.  I was very happy to use this.

I actually did not use it due to a slight injury in my left bicep, but did the 500 swing Kettlebell workout instead.  Last time I finished in 27:02 but it took me 27:45 today.  It was much hotter today.

Tomorrow, we start filming, so stay tuned for some fishing pictures tomorrow.

Great morning!

Started off with

Baseline

Row 500m

40 Air Squats

30 Abmat situps

20 pushups

10 Pullups

for time

then

Warm up for DT

then

DT

12 Deadlifts

9 Hang Power Cleans

6 Jerk

x 5 rounds for time

Rx=155 lbs

 

DT is always a very tough workout.  155 for me is a very tough weight.  Actually, it simply crushes me.

I was right next to Trevor and watched him pull ahead of me doing this workout almost unbroken.  Mine...not unbroken.  I wanted to go under 12 minutes and Trevor was shooting for sub 8.

Trevor actually got sub 8 minutes but I may have gone out too fast and got crushed in the later rounds.  12 minutes came and went and I was still working.  I finished in 14:12 today which was disappointing.  I have alot of work to do and could get much stronger in the hang clean, clean and jerk.

Always something to work on .

 

Top 6 Travel workouts with little or no equipment

/

Here are my 6 favorite travel workouts with little or no equipment for a life on the road:

6. 3 miles/300 pushups- This one is easy.  Take your running shoes and get in 3 miles with a running clock.  At any time before, during or after the run, complete 300 pushups.  You can break this up anyway you want.  I typically start the clock, then do 50 pushups and take off on the run.  At some sort of landmark like a stop sign, tree, power pole or other mark, I will drop and do 50 more.  I try to get them all done during the run and increase the pace at the end of the run.  This is my way to do it, but certainly not the only way. 

If you can bring a single Kettlebell on the road with you, the Dan John 500 swing workout can definitely get you by until you can get back to the gym

5. If you can bring a single kettlebell or you are staying in a hotel with a gym that has dumbbells, try this one:

Dan John's 500 swing workout

Find a 53 lb kettlebell or a 50 lb dumbbell (scale according to your fitness)

Choose an accessory exercise from this list: Goblet Squat, Air Squat, Pullup, Pushup, Dip

Perform Russian Kettlebell Swings (to eye level, not overhead) and accessory exercise in the following sets for one round.  In this example I chose pullups.

10 swings, 1 Pullup

15 swings, 2 pullups

25 swings, 3 pullups

50 swings, rest :30-1:00

Complete 5 rounds for time. 

This is 500 swings.  Want to make it harder?  Do American swings which go fully overhead.

This is a typical crappy hotel gym.  If you look at the bottom of the dumbbell rack, there is usally a 45 or 50 that doesnt get much use.  Grab a single dumbbell and try the Magic 50

4. Magic 50

If you have access to a hotel gym, chances are pretty good that you can find a single dumbbell.  This workout is simple, but surprisingly effective and always painful.

5 snatches each arm

5 swings each arm

10 Burpees

x 5 rounds for time

I like a 50 lb dumbbell for this, but I also use a 53 lb kettlebell if I have brought one.  Scale according to your fitness.  Make it harder by adding rounds.  At hotel gyms that only have up to a 30lb dumbbell, I might do a Magic 100 which would be 10 rounds.

Here is a typical Hampton Inn room.  I have done 100 burpees countless times in the space just in front of the bed

3. 100 burpees for time

This one cant get any simpler.  Throw yourself onto the floor, get up and jump with a clap overhead.  Do this 100 times as fast as you can.

If there is a park nearby and you are lucky enough to find a setup like this, Murph is an excellent road workout

2.  Murph

If you can find a pullup bar or a tree limb or anything to pull yourself up on, this is an outstanding workout.

Run 1 mile

100 pullups

200 pushups

300 squats

Run 1 mile

For time

Without a doubt, my go-to road workout is a simple, but effective deck of cards.  I never travel anywhere without a deck of cards.  If you were to forget, they are readily available at most cash registers, airport shops and hotel gift shops.  Always carry one

1. Best travel workout of all time.....

Deck of cards

Here is a link to a post on the Deck of cards, but I will also explain here.

Simply get a deck of cards (I never travel without one) and shuffle. 

Face cards =10 reps

Aces = 11 reps

All other cards are face value

Designate an exercise to each suit, flip cards and get moving.

My go to travel deck of cards is this:

Spades = Burpees

Clubs = Pushups

Hearts = Situps

Diamonds = Squats

Joker = 100 double unders ( I also always travel with a jump rope)

If you are on the road for a while and feeling guilty about missing your gym time, throw every key card from your trip into the deck as well and use them as additional Jokers.  It gets progressively tougher every day.

Another:

All Black Cards = Burpees

All Red Cards = Pushups

Jokers = 400 m run

You can make this as tough as you want to and there are endless combinations.  Even if you do the same combination every day, simply shuffling the cards makes it different every time.

There is no excuse for not staying in shape on the road.

A day of fun, movement based recovery turned bad this morning.

I planned a somewhat light, partner workout that would get us moving and eliminate even more of the lactic acid or at least the rusty feeling from the 3 Hero workout.

What was supposed to be pretty easy was deceptively difficult and about 5 minutes too long.

It was simple...

Partner A crab walks 20 m while Partner B does overhead walking lunges next to him for the same distance.  Upon reaching the line, switch and go back to the starting line.  Then, line up head to head and do 20 of what i called "low 5" pushups. This is a simple exercise but it does add a bit of difficulty to the standard pushups. 

Both partners go from the plank position to the bottom of the pushup, touch their chest and return to fully extended and then reach out their hand and slap a low 5 to their partner.  It seems simple and it is, but it does require absolute full extension and synchronization. 

We did this for as many rounds as possible in 15 minutes.  After round 2 most of us were pretty smoked because it was tougher than expected, but we are all still trying to recover from the 3 Hero day. 

I managed 6 full rounds and most others were right behind me. 

Next we either ran 1.5 miles as a time trial (12 min) with a 20 burpee penalty for being late or row for 12 minutes and hit 3000m or face to 20 burpees.

Most guys made the cut off, but a couple...including me, did not.  I came in 39 m short on the row and did my 20 burpees.

Maybe we can take a little break tomorrow...

or maybe not

 

4th of July 3 Heroes (or 4) Workout

/

At 5:15 am Matt Greenwell showed up at the RRL.  We both did 5 rounds of Win Hof Breathing followed by pushups as the hose filled the horse trough for post workout ice baths. 

Soon, others showed up ready to challenge themselves with a new workout for us.  I came up with the idea for a 3 Hero workout to celebrate the 4th of July and give thanks to those who have served and sacrificed for our freedom. 

The rules for today were simple...each of us would do a mandatory Murph workout which is:

Run 1 mile

100 pullups

200 pushups

300 squats

Run 1 mile

then we could pick any 2 published CrossFit Hero workouts and get them done.

I chose to do the Murph followed by

Coe

10 Thrusters at 95 lbs

10 ring pushups

x 10 rounds

then

Jack

10 Push Press at 115 lbs

10 Kettlebell Swings at 53 lbs

10 box jumps at 24"

AMRAP 20 minutes

This workout or all 3 of these workouts took me 99 minutes to complete. 

Following the completion of the last workout, I put 120 pounds of ice in a tub with water and took a 10 minute ice bath, followed by a few attempts at a 30 second breath hold in the ice water.  I only could manage 25 seconds, but the ice water was invigorating.

Most of us selected 3 workouts to do, but Trevor did 4 back to back to back to back Murphs.  This is 400 pullups, 800 pushups, 1200 squats, and 8 miles of running.  Kyle also did 4 workouts today.

Today was one of the most fun days I can remember at the RRL.  We were working hard but not trying to set any records.  We just plodded through a ridiculous amount of work.  We were rewarded with a beautiful ice bath at the end.  We had a few beers and gatorades and a lot of laughs.

If I were to have looked at this amount of work 12 years ago, I would have thought it was impossible.  Today, however, we all came with a different mindset.  A mindset that was programmed for 3 Hero workouts when we showed up.  With this mindset, the first Murph passed easily, almost effortlessly.  The second and third also passed quickly.  Of course, the work was hard, but we all had the mindset for an ultra long workout. 

If you have the mindset for a 100 mile race, a half marathon doesnt seem too bad. 

The other thing that really helped was the comraderie.  I am so fortunate to have a group of friends that will not only do something like this with me, but show up and challenge me to take it even further. 

Get your mind right and you can accomplish anything.

4th of July 3 Heroes Workout

/

On the 4th of July, we will get together to celebrate and be thankful for our freedom, our families, and our friends.

The rules are simple:

1. Start with a mandatory Murph.  Do this however you want based upon your fitness, injuries or motivation.  Use a 20 lb vest or go slick, do it partitioned or non-partitioned.

2. Then, pick any 2 Hero workouts from the list below and get them done!

3. Celebrate, be thankful, eat great food and watch some fireworks.  Oh yea...ice bath might be a good idea too.

Want to do this with us?  You can.  Email me or leave a comment and I'll tell you how.

This workout was one of Mike's favorites and he'd named it "Body Armor". From here on it will be referred to as "Murph" in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.

Partition the pull-ups, push-ups, and squats as needed. Start and finish with a mile run. If you've got a twenty pound vest or body armor, wear it.

Tuesday-Thursday June 30,2016

/

While on the road doing my son's Lacrosse tour, the guys have been hitting it pretty hard at the RRL.  See below for their workouts, followed by my road/trailer park workouts

Trevor set a new PR and a new RRL record with a 2:40.  Great work!

While on the road, I tried a workout that I saw my friend Jonathan Hurtado post as he is getting ready for a triple Heavy Goruck.  It is 500 kettlebell swings with a 53 lb kettlebell.  I didnt really know much about this workout, but I later found out that it is Dan John's 10,000 kettlebell swing strength program.  I kind of did it wrong, but got 500 swings in anyway. 

I did it like this:

American swings (completely overhead)

Broken up like this...50, 25, 15, 10

:30 rest between sets, 3:00 rest between rounds, x 5 rounds.

I finished in 40:15.

 

 

Wednesday

Trailer park workout was a simple Deck of cards because I was short on time

Thursday

After reading about the Dan John 10,000 Swing Program (click here to read for yourself)

I decided to try the 500 swings again.  I felt pretty good having done the 500 American swings and only had just a little soreness in my traps.  I wanted to try it again because it calls for doing it 4 times a week.  This seemed like alot, but I also noticed that it called for Russian swings, which is just to eye level not overhead.  The program also calls for accessory exercises to be done after the sets like this: do a set of 10 swings then do one pullup, do a set of 15, then 2 pullups, do a set of 25 then 3 pullups, do the final set of 50 and then rest. 

It could be pullups, front squats, goblet squats, overhead press or really anything.  I was light on gear so I just did air squats today.

This workout was WAY easier than the other way with the American swings.  I finished it this way in 27:02.  I like this workout though.  Great for grip strength and overall posterior chain development.  I only need one kettlebell and can do it on the road easily.  If I were to be gone for a month at some point, I would definitely consider this as a great road workout that will keep you in shape and mentally tough.

We will watch 2 games tomorrow and then head home.  Lots of drive time ahead.  I will get in some type of workout in the morning before the game.

Wednesday ​

 

I did 100 know swings with 5 burpees at the top of every minute

Thursday

at the garage

Cindy

 

Kim set a new PR. Incredible work for any +50 year old athlete. Kim always amazes me. And Trevor...wow  

I only had a short time so I came up with  

100 single arm kb snatch

emom 15 double unders

7:36

 

Friday

i didn't get a report from the garage but I did 3 miles/300 push-ups.  

Just before the workout I did Wim Hof breathing  + push-ups and did 90

 

i only got 1 mile in and felt a weird twinge in my left calf. With my history of nagging calf injuries, I stopped and walked the 3 miles. I did 500 push-ups instead of 300. 

Hopefully this will clear up with a little rest.

I'm am on the road for a lacrosse tournament with my son and family.  

6 am (slept in)  

deck of cards in parking lot

spades=burpees

clubs=push-ups  

diamonds=squats

hearts=kettle bell swings 53 lbs

3 jokers = 100 double unders each

 

good workout.  

sometimes I think I may push the guys in the garage a little too hard. About the time this thought comes in, I leave town and they send me a picture of the board like they did today. They are hungry for a grind. 

 

Tuesday

parking lot again  

this time, 100 kb swings but every minute on the minute do 5 burpees

 

6:20

 

Here is what the boys did in the garage today.

​

Off for more lacrosse
