how efficient is the 300 workou?
If you ever had the chance to begin to see the movie 300, you had been probably amazed at the type of sculpted bodies the actors who literally Greek warriors displayed. At first I believed it was some type of special effects trick, but the truth is they did a special routine known as the 300 workout. This workout is tough for ordinary people to do since it requires a lot of equipment which most gyms don’t have.
So a famous fitness expert called Craig Ballantyne decided to produce a similar workout called the 300 Workout which doesn’t require any weights or equipment but continues to be intensive enough to produce fast fat loss and muscle sculpting results.
Here is what the 300 Workout includes:
- 50 Prisoner Squats
- 50 Pushups
- 25 Jumps
- 25 Stability Ball Leg Curls
- 50 Stability Ball Jackknifes
- 50 Step-ups (25 reps per side)
- 25 Pull-ups (NO substitutions)
- 50 Forward Lunges (25 reps per side)
- 50 Close-grip Pushups
- 50 Inverted Rows
- 50 Squats
- 25 Chin-ups (NO substitutions)
In total you receive 500 repetitions of these exercises which prevent your bodyweight and nothing more. That’s why they refer to it as the Bodyweight 500 workout. You have to perform these 500 reps one after the other without pausing. Trust me, it is extremely intensive. Through the end of the session you’ll be huffing and puffing and sweating profusely. But you will have also burned a lot of calories, spiked your heartbeat, and worked virtually every muscle in your body. And it requires a ridiculously short time for you to do it.
Just one thing you need to know: this workout session is intensive, so do not do it unless you’re already fit. But if you’re, then do it. Whenever you finish it, the sensation is awesome.
