Workout Challenge

This is for everyone who wants a challenging workout.  Basically the workout is simple in the sense of what you need to complete it.  Find a track or a soccer field or even a basketball court.  Easiest will be a track of 400 meters.  The workout involves splitting up the running portion into 100 meters or 200 meters sprints.  Even a 100 meter stretch can work, but its harder to keep count of how many sets you have completed.  Many of you may have heard of this workout or even have done it.  So your input on how to make it more challenging or how to help beginners is appreciated.

The workout is:

Run 100 meters at sprint speed and stop.  Immediately do burpees (everyone will be at their own level, so figure out how many you can do without running and do half in the interval circuit.  Say for example I do 5 burpees).  Once you have completed your burpees.

Get back up and run again for 100 meters at sprint speed, stop and do another set of burpees.  Keep the circuit going till you can't go anymore...gas tank is empty.  Before you start make sure to stretch the whole body.  Burpees done without stretching will cause major abdominal pain for the next few days and even leg pains and upper torso around the chest area.  Also finish the workout with a cool down.  Which can be walking till your heart comes to resting rate or jog and make sure to stretch at the end.

I'm add a link of how to do a burpee for the beginners and those who feel uneasy of how to perform one.  Others perform the burpee in a different way, which can be easier or harder.  But I have found this way is the best for a total body exercise.  http://www.bodybuilding.com/exercises/detail/view/name/burpee  The jump at the end can be changed to make it more difficult or taken out to make it easy.  There is no right or wrong unless your form is not correct, which can cause more pains later on. 

Have fun with it and don't over exert yourself.  Build up to a goal.  Anyone who wants to post their workouts is encouraged to do so as this may motivate others to get up and try it.  At the end you may be ready to faint, but you will look back and be impressed at your progress of cardio, overall fitness and health.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
