Sand Blast Training (Sand Bag)

Sand Blast



Sand Bag




Workout 1: SandBlast Basics

This workout is designed to give you grounding in the basic techniques involved in training with a SandBlast. Use a moderate weight SandBlast and take the time to really get a feel for the movements.


1. SandBlast Clean x 10 repetitions

2. SandBlast Floor Press x 10 repetitions

3. SandBlast High Pull x 10 repetitions

Repeat for a total of 3-5 rounds with rest as needed.



Workout 2: SandBlast Strength Session

This workout is focused on developing strength with the SandBlast. The SandBlast should be relatively heavy and offer a challenge.


1. SandBlast Deadlift x 5 repetitions

2. SandBlast Back Squat x 5 repetitions

3. SandBlast Overhead Press x 5 repetitions

Take 2-4 minutes rest between each set.



Workout 3: SandBlast Conditioning Session


1. SandBlast Get Up with a SandBlast Windmill x 5 repetitions on each side

2. 400m Run


Complete as many rounds as possible in 15 minutes.



SandBlast Strength Workouts


Developing strength with the SandBlast, as opposed to a traditional free weight like the barbell or dumbbell, requires some adaptations to your programming.SandBlast training necessitates that you get good at transitioning between positions. But the bottom line is, it is going to be very tough to hit your max back squat with a SandBlast if you can’t even get it onto your shoulders, so you need to be a little creative.

The SandBlast Strength workout below gives SandBlast substitutions for the key barbell strength exercises of deadlift, back squat, overhead press, and bench press. Like a standard strength program, you can break these up into one or two lifts per session, with accessory work if required. As with any strength work, you need to be adding small incremental increase to the weight of your SandBlast. This can happen from session-to-session, week-to-week, or month-to-month, but it needs to happen.



Workout 1: SandBlast Strength


SandBlast Bear Hug Squat 3 x 5

Grip your SandBlast in a bear hug so it rests high on the chest. The placement of this SandBlast makes this more of a front squat variation, but it does mean that you can complete the exercise without the need to have to press the bag overhead as well.  
    







SandBlast Open Grip Deadlift 3 x 5

You may well be able to add enough sand to your bag to make a SandBlast deadlift comparable to a regular barbell deadlift. But for those who are stronger, you can maximize the benefit of using your SandBlast by adopting an open grip - using the fabric of the SandBlast itself rather than any handles. This places additional stress on the grip, as you won’t be able to fully close the hand.




SandBlast Floor Press 3 x 5


You can perform a SandBlast bench press if you have access to a bench. Otherwise, the floor press is a great alternative. Start the exercise with the SandBlast across hips and then bridge to lift it up onto chest. Take a firm grip of the SandBlast from underneath, this way you’ll be able to maximize your range of motion if the bag begins to sag.





SandBlast Overhead Press 3 x 5

The overhead press is one of the few SandBlast lifts that can be done without too much adjustment, principally as most individuals are able to clean their overhead press weight fairly comfortably. You will have to contend with a greater degree of multi-planar stress at full arm extension. The SandBlast, much like dumbbells or a Swiss bar, also allows for a more pronated grip - excellent if you have any issues with shoulder impingement.      

Rest 2-4 minutes between sets.



Workout 2: The Milo SandBlast Challenge


 The aim is to continually add small daily increments of weight to your SandBlast. This requires commitment, but the results can be fantastic.
Perform 5 ground-to-overhead lifts with your SandBlast.Take as much rest as you need in between lifts. You should start with a moderately heavy SandBlast and add 1lb of sand to your bag each day. Perform daily until you can no longer complete the lifts.

Workout 3: SandBlast Medley


SandBlast Drag                                        
Drag a heavy SandBlast 20m before lifting it onto (or over) a platform at around chest height. This could be an actual platform, a wall, a fence or even a tree branch. Rest for 2-4 minutes and repeat for a total of 5 rounds. You should be working with the heaviest SandBlast you can handle.





Multi-Planar SandBlast Workouts

The following workouts have been selected to encourage either movement or stability in all three planes of motion. You should also take a look at your current sport (or daily activities that you want to improve) and examine where you might need to develop improved movement and stability.


Workout 1


10 x SandBlast shoulder squats (sagittal movement with stress in the frontal/coronal plane)
10 x SandBlast lunge and twist (sagittal and transversal movement)
10 x SandBlast round-the-worlds (transversal movement with stress in the sagittal and frontal/coronal plane)

Rest for 1 minute and repeat for a total of 4 rounds, switching sides/direction each round.



Workout 2


5 x SandBlast get up/windmills on each side (tri-planar)
5 x SandBlast single arm/single leg overhead press on each side (sagittal movement with stress in the frontal/coronal plane)
5 x SandBlast shoulder lunges (sagittal plane movement with stress in the frontal/coronal plane)

As many rounds as possible in 15 minutes. Rest as needed.



Workout 3


25 x SandBlast shoulder-to-shoulder overhead press (sagittal movement with stress in the frontal/coronal and transversal planes)
25 x SandBlast bear-hug good mornings (sagittal plane movement with stress in the transversal plane)
25 x SandBlast Zercher lateral lunges (frontal/coronal movement with stress in the sagittal plane)
25 x SandBlast wood-chops (transversal movement with stress in the frontal/coronal plane)

Complete the workout as quickly as possible.











The Workouts



These workouts are tough and are designed to build from those earlier in this article series.

DIET

                                                                                  bodybuildinginfoo.blogspot.com

In nutrition, diet is the sum of food consumed by a person or other organism. Dietary habits are the habitual decisions an individual or culture makes when choosing what foods to eat. The word diet often implies the use of specific intake of nutrition for health or weight-management reasons.A particular diet may be chosen to seek weight loss or weight gain. Changing a subject's dietary intake, or "going on a diet", can change the energy balance and increase or decrease the amount of fat stored by the body. Some foods are specifically recommended, or even altered, for conformity to the requirements of a particular diet. These diets are often recommended in conjunction with exercise. Specific weight loss programs can be harmful to health, while others may be beneficial and can thus be coined as healthy diets. The terms "healthy diet" and "diet for weight management" are often related, as the two promote healthy weight management. Having a healthy diet is a way to prevent health problems, and will provide your body with the right balance of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients.
A healthy diet is one that helps maintain or improve overall health.
A healthy diet provides the body with essential nutrition: fluid, adequate essential amino acids from protein, essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and adequate calories. The requirements for a healthy diet can be met from a variety of plant-based and animal-based foods. A healthy diet supports energy needs and provides for human nutrition without exposure to toxicity or excessive weight gain from consuming excessive amounts. Where lack of calories is not an issue, a properly balanced diet (in addition to exercise) is also thought to be important for lowering health risks, such as obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension and cancer.

An individual's diet is the sum of food and drink that he or she habitually consumes. Dieting is the practice of attempting to achieve or maintain a certain weight through diet.People's dietary choices are often affected by a variety of factors, including ethical and religious beliefs, clinical need, or a desire to control weight.
Not all diets are considered healthy. Some people follow unhealthy diets through habit, rather than through a conscious choice to eat unhealthily. Terms applied to such eating habits include "junk food diet" and "Western diet". Many diets are considered by clinicians to pose significant health risks and minimal long-term benefit.

“”To reach your  goal, you must also follow a  diet. Why? Even if you work out hard for an hour every day, that still leaves 23 more hours for you to wreck all your hard work in the gym with just one slip-up: a measly handful of chips, a beer with the guys or a burger at lunch. Diet is a huge, so to speak, part of the fat-loss equation. It's the backbone of your entire plan, the foundation of a hard body.
There's just no way around the diet, and eating clean . Here are his three simple principles to shed fat fast.

1. Eat at least 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight, daily. If your protein intake is too low on a restricted-calorie diet, you'll lose a lot of muscle in addition to any fat you’re lucky enough to shed. A high protein intake will help you preserve lean mass during your dieting phase. Choose lean high-quality proteins like egg whites, poultry, lean red meat and protein supplements. The diet provided here contains about 220-250 grams of protein daily, fine for a male weighing 200-250 pounds. Up your protein only if you're heavier than 250 pounds, or you're very hungry and need to add food during the day. (If you're under 180 pounds, cut out 3 ounces of meat or chicken per day from the diet.)
2. Keep your carbohydrates low to moderate when trying to lose weight. "On a low day you'll have closer to 100 grams of carbs,".A moderate day is about 150 grams of carbs." Good, clean, fiber-rich carbs include oats, potatoes, rice and whole-grain bread.
3. Drink at least a gallon of water per day. It'll keep you hydrated and healthy. Water should be your primary beverage during dieting. Though many rely on diet sodas, Crystal Light and other low-calorie sweetened drinks, plain old water is really your best bet.
