My mentality on this quest to find the World’s Toughest Workouts is to keep an open mind.
For too long I have fallen into the trap of believing I had to find one best way of ‘doing fitness’.
I’ve done running.
I’ve done running and weights.
I’ve done Cross Fit WOD’S.
Each time I found reasons why that training was great and why it wasn’t and ultimately got bored.
My aim in life now is to complete all the fitness experiences I want to which will mean using different modalities at different times depending on the task in hand.
To my mind this is the only way to live and to get the most out of life!
I can’t say I’ve ever been a fan of bodybuilding because my conditioning levels are too precious to me, but as part of the WTW quest I am willing to listen and learn from anyone and everyone who knows what they are talking about.
This includes Jimmy Smith, a bodybuilding expert from Conneticut.
Here’s what he had to say on adding muscle without losing strength or getting too big to move, Greg Glassman of CrossFit getting it plain wrong on bodybuilding and how he makes sessions for size ‘tough’.
