Do Work Blue Collar Yard

The rings--they sting a lil bit


The kettlebell-35 lbs--OUCH!!


For those of you who know this is the name that I have given my garage gym. Pull up bar, heavy bag, tires, med balls, dumb bells, rings, rower, and kettlebells....what more do you need. No BS arm curls or tri exts or any BS glamour muscle builders. Its all old school power strength training. I have always enjoyed push ups, pull ups and crazy wierd "painful" stregth exercises. So I thought why not share my pain with others. I have had a few come thru and fewer have stuck around. These exercises are not for the faint of heart. And just to be on the safe side there is a bucket if things dont work out in your belly. Trust me..it happens. I still have my gym membership and go 5 days a week but supplement my other training in the garage. I am training Rymer right now and its just easier to hit the gym than hang in the garage. But I am slowely adding new gear for the "DO Work" gym.






I feel training is going well, bike: focusing on base miles, and just started hill repeats. Run: my foot has flared up again, so I have beacked off the running. My strength training is going very well right now. I pulled 22 straight pull ups the other day. Cleaned 145 last week, thats after doing 8 sets of variuos reps. Now with the kettlebells, I feel I will only get stronger. My weight is staying right around 205-207, my bodyfat is 10% as of 4 weeks ago. I had a assesment done at the gym. My towel pullups are getting stronger, doing around 8-10 reps 3-4 sets. (After my regular workout)
