Fitness trail training is as
bare bones as it gets. Regardless of the weather, being outdoors naturally
motivates you and brings about an appreciation for training in the elements... Hitting
the trails rather than the weights creates an ideal environment to step away
from the hustle and bustle that happens in the gym and in life. Whether you’re
a seasoned trail enthusiast or never paid much attention to them, here are some
ways to diversify your training while you're on the trails. Pack up your gear
bag with water, trail mix and protein powder and prepare to hit these stations
with some different workout variations .
One of the first stations you will approach is the
push-up station . A great body weight
exercise to get the blood flowing and develop the chest, shoulders and triceps.
Variation One: Try performing three sets of traditional pushups going to
complete failure. Hit the ground, place your arms shoulder-width apart, back
straight and feet together. Perform as many reps as possible. Rest 30-45 seconds
in between each set. Variation Two: To turn it up a notch, give the plyometric
version of the push-up a shot. From the traditional push up position, as you
explode upwards quickly remove your hands from the bar, clap them and return
back to the start position. Try performing three sets of plyo pushups to
complete failure. Rest for 60 seconds in between sets. Variation Three: Single
arm push-ups are the toughest of the challenges at this station. Begin from the
traditional push-up position, place one hand to your side, behind your back or
on your thigh. Perform as many reps as possible with one arm then switch to the
other side. Rest for 60 seconds and perform one to two more sets
