Guest guest Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Gentlemen, I have done "Viking Dan's" intense workout and it will humble the most ardent Bullworker user. Dan's routine was one of the first that included "weight training reps and sets" with a Bullworker. The results more than speak for themselves. It is a completely different strength level and I believe (to a certain degree) an increase in muscle mass not attainable with the straight Isometric holds. Much more of a 1950's Steve Reeves look, defined, large and rock hard. However, such a routine is not for the faint of heart and calls for much discipline in its 12 week (90 day) transformation. This is a routine one marks their chart faithfully every workout. I have personally never seen another Bullworker routine that delivered these kind of results. Respectfully, Bullworker To: bullworkerclub Sent: Wednesday, November 2, 2011 6:40 AMSubject: Re: Bullworker fitness ,Thanks for the feedback and especially also, hearing from .I agree 100% that exercise defines what you look like as you are loosing weight and applying correct diet principles. Diet alone won't do it and working out alone won't do it. They have to be combined to acheive results that are 'reachable' and yes, desireable.I plan on mixing in the timed holds for 2 weeks and then going back to Dans workouts.I went through a period of doing those intense workouts a little over a year ago...for one full month. And supplemented at the end with sets of 'jump squats' to really get the heart rate up and ended with anywhere from 100 to 150 depending on how I felt that day. This really worked....so just getting back to the workouts..want to build up a bit before going back to them.Again, thanks for the feedback, guys.>> Gentlemen,>  > This is one of the best replies for using a Bullworker. > Mix it up, mix it up, mix it up. > Every routine offers a little different result.> You will not get bored if you mix it up.> Like , my mainstay is the SaHm routine; my cardio workout involving the whole body.> As this workout is only 30 minutes long, I always supplement it with at least 15 minutes of a different and closing routine. And periodically I switch from the Resiliency to the Endurance SaHm and after 25 exercise of that routine, I really do not feel like doing much else and I do not.> Gentlemen, exercise is a commitment and to provide meaningful results, it must be challenging, which usually means there is a fatigue factor involved. Start avoiding the fatigue factor and I guarantee you your fitness level will start melting away like ice on a sidewalk. May be June; may be January, but it will melt away.>  > As for the timed holds/yoga/bodyweight... good for you... you are mixing it up.> Do not lock yourself into one routine.> As for your Bullworker, do some timed holds for 2 weeks and then switch to reps. Do some hard reps and some high reps... again mix it up. The most complete exercise routine should be like a transmission... several gears for different grades.> Not necessarily all in the same workout, but shift gears for your workouts.> Put your body into overall fitness, not "how big are my arms?" It is a lot more rewarding to be physically fit with lots of activity than being an iron head who is concerned with how much he can lift and their spare time is always in the gym. Bullworker fitness frees you from the gym. Fitness opens up the outside world to activity, especially as you age. >  > Just remember this: Exercise determines how we look after we finish dieting.> You can lose all the weight you want, just by controlling your calorie intake.> Mix the two together wisely and patiently and you will be rewarded grandly for your efforts.>  > Respectfully,>  > > Bullworker>  > .> > > ________________________________> > To: bullworkerclub > Sent: Tuesday, November 1, 2011 3:31 PM> Subject: Re: How many workout with Isometric hold vs. Isotonic movements...or a combo of each> > >  > i do sit at home five days a week with steel bow classic combo walk 5km every day i work a nine night day fortnight and on my day off i some times do the chart to wear i mark of the exercises around forty of them low reps with a hold i also carry out pure iso holds now as well at times. I like to break the training up a bit know because this routine i have been training with know for around a 20 months some days for a change i do iso motion ,or use my bow extension and follow the charts etc eve thou i have been training with the bull worker know for some time i have not lost interest i aways find a different angle or way to keep it fun and interesting they are such a great tool to work with ! the steelbow is aways close at hand if i am sitting at home on the coach for example just grab it a bang in a few reps another tool i have recently acquired is a Mega wrist roller from Sierra ExerciseEquipment,> i top off every work out with this tool i love the fore arm burn it gives me it works great i highly recommend getting one of these its a great addition to your bullworker training > http://www.sierraexercise.com/ my results are a feel great i am strong people comment on how well i look etc e.g. a young bloke i was working with turned to me and said hey john how's those gun's going he must have noticed how tight my overalls have become around my arms i was on the shovel at the time i laughed all good bro no licence required for these baby's!> >> > Don't know if this should be a poll or not...but just interested to see how many work out with Reps...vs. Timed Holds...and How many Times a week do you workout w/ Bullworker, instead of other workouts.> > > > Me.
