These women are featured in a number of crossfit workouts of the day but in this example, they’re just doing pullups.
Pullups, Pushups and squats are the primary bodyweight weight training exercises and have long been the way to measure strength. My dad had a pullup bar installed in our basement when I was growing up, but to be honest, I never saw him doing any. Maybe it was mom who was doing them?
This has got to be the best video I’ve seen of pushups. These strong women (and a couple of guys) do some things with pushups that inspire me to train harder. I’m not sure if this was shot in one single day, but you can tell from her exhaustion at one point, that she’d done enough.
Continuing our day long feature on strong women, this crossfit workout shows a mother and daughter competing against each other (or training with each other). These crossfit workouts are nothing to sneeze at. They’ll kick your ass.
This is the first in a series of day long videos featuring strong women. This first one shows a young woman doing pull ups at an outdoor exercise location. I’m pretty sure it’s in Australia, but don’t quote me on that. Guys? how many pull ups can you do?
Are you looking for a bodyweight workout to test your strength and endurance? Try this simple little round that I found on crossfit today. It’s their Workout Of The Day or WOD and If you’re not sweating and panting like a dog when you’re done, there’s something wrong.
The idea is to complete as many of these rounds as possible in 20 minutes.
Body Weight Pull Ups
Pull-ups & Chin-ups force you to lift your own body weight and are one the best strength training exercises you can do for strength & muscle mass. Pull ups are done with palms facing away from you which then uses more back and less bicep making it harder than chins.
