FREE Workout AND Soundtrack of the Month!!

Thursday, August 19th, 2010

As a special thank you for being a valued WM follower, we’ve decided to pay it forward and provide you with a FREE workout AND soundtrack of the month!!

Each and every month at WM we’ll be launching a featured workout of the month AND a featured soundtrack of the month.

I’ll basically be selecting one of the killer workouts from Bootcamp Automator (3 Workout A-B-C Rotation), which is the exact done-for-you program design from my very own bootcamps to automate corporate and community camps (this popular program for fitness pros will re-open sometime soon).

The Workout of the Month (WOM) features ONE main workout template with an equipment-based and equipment-free version to accommodate home/travel fitness programs (2 total workout options). It also features custom interval tracks that actually tell you exactly what exercise to do for complete automation. In total, it comes with 2 instructional workout videos and 2 companion interval tracks for each workout. It will sell a la carte for $19.95 each month to start.

The Soundtrack of the Month (SOM) solely features the 1 interval track of the same interval protocol from the WOM without the specific exercise instructions. This “open” track is just like the other WM tracks that allow you the utmost versatility in designing your workouts of choice within the confines of that particular interval protocol. It will sell a la carte for $9.95 each month to start.

Since words simply can’t do WM justice… we’re gonna give you July’s WOM and SOM on the house so you can personally test-drive these cool new monthly offerings to see if they are the right fit for you.

The July WOM featured 40-20 Drop Set Circuit Training. You really need to give this workout a shot… it truly is a test of wills and a total fitness experience. To download your free July WOM, follow the instructions below:

Corporate Fitness Boot Camps Featuring Workout Muse Interval Training Music

Corporate Fitness Boot Camps Featuring Workout Muse Interval Training Music

By Greg Justice, MA

Corporate Boot Camps are getting a lot of attention these days, with good reason.  On a weekly basis I get questions from trainers about the best way to break into the corporate market.  There are several considerations when beginning, so I’ll focus on them one by one.  This blog post will compare the regular boot camp environment with a corporate boot camp environment.

Regular boot camps are usually run outside in a park, or a big open gym area where the instructor can yell, scream and motivate with reckless abandon.  If you tried that in a corporate setting, you would probably get thrown out before your first “Drop and give me 20” command.  Don’t get me wrong, you still have to bring the same energy, passion and enthusiasm; it just has to be done in a controlled manner.

Resistance Band Interval Training Music Workout

Thursday, July 9th, 2009

Resistance Band Interval Training Music Workout

main

You know one of the easiest ways to set up a boot camp interval workout to music is by using Alternate Resistance Band Partner training in conjunction with interval training music.  The set up takes seconds and the interval workout music literally takes the campers through the workout while creating incredible workout energy.

Here is how you do it:

Choose 2 exercises that work opposite movements (Vertical push and Vertical pull or alternating sides using a unilateral exercise like lunges) and  than put your camp into teams of 2 or 4 people.

Split the group in half and instruct half the group to do one exercise while the other half does the other exercise.  The interval workout music will tell them when to switch.  Literally I instruct my campers on what they need in resistance bands, demo the exercise and click on the Workout Muse workout music.

Examples of some great resistance band alternate partner workouts.

1.    High Pull – Front Squat
2.    Push Press – Hammer Curl
3.    Split squat right – Split squat left

All of these workouts use attachment free resistance band set ups so all you need is space, a single resistance band per person, and some motivated campers to get after it.

Take a look at a recent camp I did using alternate partner training in conjunction with workout muse 20-10 Tabatas.
