7 minutes of pain
This workout is for people who think short intense workouts might not work, so try this 7 minutes of pain.

  • Do 1 minute of jumping jacks
  • Do 30 seconds of burpees
  • Do 30 seconds of Hindu pushups
  • repeat for 6:00 minutes

Heres the catch the number of reps are:

  • 70 to 75 jumping jacks
  • 10 to 12 jumping burpees
  • 13 to 15 Hindu pushups
  • Last but least 1 minute of suicides 5 to 10 yards apart- touch the line everytime

If you fail to do the required number of reps the workout is over.

A great workout for under $5.00


The one piece of execise equipment you shouldn't be with out, is a jump rope, this is one of the least used piece's of exercise equipment, and one of the most result producingfor under $5.00
( unless your mark $9.00 )

Most people would rather go out for a jog, why? because what we have all been told, running long distance will burn more fat, this is a myth- jumping rope for shorter periods of time will benefit you more and save you more time.

Jumping rope will improve:
  1. Speed
  2. Quickness
  3. Agility
  4. Explosiveness

Most people won't jump because they think that they are uncoordinated or it is to demanding and they are probably right, people who would rather complain then try will never be able to do it.

If they took a little time and practice they would find that they could use rope jumping training to improve their fitness levels and save time in their already busy lives.

Train Hard and Never Give up !!

Fitness standards

The other day I was reading an article on what one fitness expert thought you should be able to do to be considered physically fit:

  • If you can do 40 to 50 pushups in 2 minutes you are in excellent shape.
  • If you can do bodyweight squats 30 to 34 times your leg strength is average, if you can get close to 45 your leg strength is excellent.

40 to 50 pushups should only take 40 to 50 seconds- thats 1 second a pushup as far as bodyweight squats go they will take longer because you have a farther distance to cover, however you should be able to do at least 80 in 2 minutes to be average.

So why has our standards of physical fitness dropped ? because more and more people are fat and out of shape and this will never change until people start to take responsibility and stop making excuses for their laziness.
