Anyone ever incorporated this into their training? Notice any benefits/downsides to it?
I've started doing a 20 minute circuit of the following...
Tyre Flips, Sled Push, Sled Pulls (it's a makeshift one with rope on, so when I've pushed it to the end line I pull it back to the start and go again. Works great with weight on it) and sledgehammer strikes.
I do say 10 flips, 5 pushes and 5 pulls & 10-15 strikes for say 3 sets, then I'll add weight/reduce rest time etc.
Cardio, for me, HAS to be enjoyable, so I think I've found what I've been looking for with this routine as it leaves me absolutely ruined, the benefits of flipping the tire feels like a Deadlift/Squat, the push of the Sled feels like sprinting and the pulling is fun too. I'm absolutely in love with this style, I wish I had done it years ago.
So what would you say the benefits/downsides to this are?
