Yeah... Besides work I really don't have a life XD

Lol join the club! i box 3x a week so its 3 hour work outs, cardio bag ring and focus pad work and circuit training. I count this as part of my cardio andi do 2 50 minute cardio sessions a day atm plus weights. sat and sun are weight rest days but i still do cardio.
 
I feel Crossfit is pretty sufficient to keep up the level of fitness required to do this sort of work. One, it varies every day, and two, the website is free and always posts the workout of the day. I started doing it while i was in the Corps, and continue using as my main source of fitness. Coupled with a Zone or Paleo diet ( which hard while in HEs ) you can shed weight and get functionally fit rather quickly.

Not sure if this has been posted somewhere, but i found this on the net. Some guy had discovered this whilst researching something in prisons in the USA (i forget the detail!). I have started doing doing it, and it wears me out. Feels like it is doing some good, plus it can be done almost anywhere.

The exercise is simply a 20 down to 1 descending sets of burpees with a press up and a jump. From standing into squat, legs out into front support position, press up, legs back in to squat position, stand up with a jump, return to standing, repeat....

I have been doing these along with chins, dips and crunches.

Like i say, probably been up before.

Quick up date, been hectic busy not had time..
Diet time again comp in April, im grumpy and hungry and cardio is a bitch atm. On the plus side im curling ez bar 80lbs, pressing 200kg + on legs and toning up rather nicely.
Cardio is 6 days a week, and the weights are now 5 days getting quite intense.
 
Ey up all

Want better results. Do your weights first. All that cardio beforehand diminishes your ability to lift heavy due to fatigue.
