Got through 50 push-ups on the first round. 20 lbs on the weighted movements. Knee push-ups instead of the real thing.
Kinda mixed feelings about this one. Obviously, I wasn't happy with myself immediately after. I mean, I understand that this (like so much else in life) is at LEAST 85% preparation, and I was mad for not having done the prep as much as anything else.
Still, once I got some sleep and was able to just accept the poor preparation as a given, I realized I did pretty well for myself. Apart from some sputtering on the thrusters, I was able to keep pushing. Even when the anger and frustration started to well up, I did a decent job of, if nothing else, continuing to move and, even if I wasn't quite drama free, at least confining it to shorter scenes than I have in the past.
So, I guess it boils down to a good night, given that it was a bad week. Does that count as breaking even? :p
Be smart. This is dangerous physical training. The evolutions (daily workouts) on this site are completed under professional and well educated supervision. This blog is intended to inspire and chart the growth of our clientele, it is not intended in any way to be a suggested workout plan for any person who is not under our direct supervision and guidance. Should you choose to do any of the evolutions or movements on this site you do so at your own risk. EFC (Extreme Fitness Concepts) is not responsible for any negative consequence you may encounter as a result of your choosing to do this intense form of physical activity.
Extreme Fitness Concepts
Extreme Fitness Concepts (EFC) is a fitness ideology that combines multiple energy systems in a short durational high intensity training session to create a superior level of balanced fitness. Psychology is a key factor in EFC training as breaking through mental plateaus is essential to complete the day’s evolution. We train minds. We train the spirit. We develop philosophies and test them daily. Through physical exhaustion we seek the higher self.
Olympic lifts, Power lifts, Kettlebell movements, Sandbag training, Bodyweight movements, and improvised object implementation.
The Evolution:
An EFC session is known as an evolution. After your session, you are not the same person that you were prior to it. Therefore, you have evolved in some way, however subtle it may be. An EFC evolution can lasts between a few minutes to an hour. It is essential that the session is treated like an event. Start with a goal and race for it. A typical evolution leads to full systemic overload. The heart of the evolution is the goal orientated completion of a task working against personal bests.
