So my week long 300 Challenge has come to an end. The challenge was to do the 300 workout every day for one week. Here are the day’s results:
Looking back on the week that was, this is what I learned, in no particular order:
- Going hard every day causes you to adapt quicker that I thought possible;
- By working out regularly, you can overcome DOMS;
- Being sore shouldn’t be a reason not to train or to train light;
- A training schedule that seems impossible can become possible just by going hard at it and sticking to it;
- An alternative to the 30, 60 or 90 day plans is the 7 day plan, just to get you moving;
- If you are struggling to make gains, take one week to do something you think you can’t and just go for it. You might surprise yourself;
- You can increase strength significantly in only one week;
- The 300 challenge is great for boosting your metabolism;
- Doing a workout outside is a great way to add some variety to your training schedule;
- As a whole body workout, the 300 challenge is a fantastic way to figure out which body parts are lagging and need to be focused on;
- No matter how hard you think you are training, you always have that little extra to give; and
- Before training, setting your mind to really push yourself on your most difficult exercise is a great way to perform well at that exercise without compromising your performance on the others.
I highly recommend you take on the 300 challenge for yourself. I was fitter and stronger after completing it. Maybe you could be too. Don’t let the intensity scare you off. Just do it
