HIIT Parachute Sprints

One thing I am trying to do this off season is keep some variation and really push myself to improve in all areas.  I am doing this by incorporating a few different forms of cardio and one is Parachute sprints.  This week I did them on Sunday, which is an off day from weights.  All I have to say is It was a very humbling experience with a headwind,  but they are an absolute blast and I am already looking forward to my next go with them. 

Today I had a great one today with Ty and Gary.  We kept it fast pace and suppersetted pretty much everything.  Two were lifting and one was resting, it worked out great!  Here's how it went down....

My Pre Workout Meal!

When it comes to my pre workout meal I am pretty consistent and like to eat about 1 1/2-2 hours prior to lifting.  My favorite, by far is Chobani Yogurt......well three at a time.  I purchase it at our local Costco by the case and it comes in three different flavors, strawberry, blueberry and peach.  I tend to stick to the pre packaged containers right now because it is easy to store in my cooler for the day and already pre measured.  Since it is technically my off season I'm not as anal retentive with measuring so I just go off the label.  Here is the breakdown.

Fat: 0 g
