BURN FAT WITH THE SPARTACUS ULTIMATE SANDBAG WORKOUT



FUNK ROBERTS SPARTACUS ULTIMATE SANDBAG WORKOUT

Ultimate Sandbag Training is awesome!! I am so excited that I have added this element to my training and even more pumped to bring this element to you. After this workout today I asked myself, what took me so long?


I say that because I have had the Sandbag in the basement for a while and only decided to bring it out yesterday and test this bad boy. The result is astounding: every muscle in my body is sore from the workout, which means, the Ultimate Sandbag works.

FUNK ROBERTS ULTIMATE SANDBAG SPARTACUS WORKOUT #1


You will perform the Ultimate Sandbag Spartacus Workout #1 as a circuit, doing one set of each exercise in succession. Each exercise is timed for 45 seconds. You will do as many reps as you can, in that duration (with perfect form), then move on to the next station in the circuit. You get 15 seconds to transition between stations, and then move onto the next exercise.

After you complete all 10 exercises or one circuit in succession you will rest for 2 minutes. Then repeat 2 more times. That is what is called a 45-15 Interval workout (45 seconds of work followed by 15 seconds of rest). Total workout takes 40 minutes.

Sandbag Workouts for Fat Loss - Josh Henkin


In the battle for greater fat loss, possessing the right tools is vitally important. Often boredom, lack of time, and minimal variety can quickly sabotage even the best laid fitness programs. This had led me to a continual and never ending search for training methods and tools that can produce fast results and keep training fun!

Fat loss and great fitness were only part of my goals as a serious back injury had long kept me from pursuing my personal fitness with great consistency. I constantly experimented with many different ideas and one that instantly seemed to fit all my needs was sandbag training.

With all the modern pieces of fitness equipment why would a sandbag appear to be an ideal solution for my fitness needs? I evaluated what are the common requirements of a well rounded fitness program?

1. Something that could train a lot of muscles at one time to stimulate not only fat loss, but optimal muscle gain.

2. A tool that could challenge my core strength for not only great abdominals, but one that was equally as strong to help bring my back to my ideal level.

3. A program that could easily be adapted to a beginner or an elite athlete.

4. Something that could be used in a multitude of ways to train endurance, strength, and flexibility.

5.Ideally a program that had stood the test of time and proven to be effective over the centuries.


Sandbags were ideal for all of these considerations. Training compound lifts is one of the first rules in creating effective fat loss programs. By stimulating a large number of muscles we burn a lot of calories as well as stimulate the positive hormones that help shred body fat and increase lean body mass. Sure, barbells, bodyweight exercises, and dumbbells can all be used in this manner. However, sandbags stimulate more muscles than any!

Because sandbags change their shape as you lift them, the body has to recruit the big prime movers as well as the stabilizers to perform all the lifts. This means we are training more muscles leading to a better result! Ever notice how much easier it is to lift a well balanced box with handles than an awkward bag with no handles?

Holding sandbags in different positions, whether it is on the shoulder, bear hug, zercher, or any of the many varieties makes the core work harder. The weight either tries to pull the body forward and the trunk must resist or the core has to prevent the body when the weight is loaded on the side.

Sandbags can be used for interval training, strength training, and easily integrated into many other fitness programs. Take a sandbag and your bodyweight and you can develop an incredible fat loss program that would never become boring!


Skeptic? Just give sandbag training one workout and you will quickly become a believer in its effectiveness and challenge.

    1. Do you know the 2 biggest reasons men and women stop exercising?

      1) Lack of time
      2) Lack of motivation

      Let's tackle "Lack of Time" today with 5 ways you can get your
      workouts done faster. After all, no one should spend more than 50
      minutes in the gym.

      Here are 5 ways to cut time from your workouts.

      a) Supersets

      I use "non-competing" superset. This means, choose two exercises
      for different muscle groups - and preferably completely opposite
      movements. For example, choose a push and a pull. That way, one
      muscle group rests while the other works...and you cut the rest
      time you need between sets.

      b) Choose a better warm-up strategy

      Don't waste 10 minutes walking on the treadmill. Instead, use a
      total body circuit of bodyweight exercises as a general warm-up, and
      then move directly into specific warm-up sets for your first two
      exercises.

      c) Pair dumbbell and bodyweight exercises together in your
      supersets

      This saves you time at home (you don't need to change the dumbbell
      weight between exercises) and in the gym (you don't need to fight
      for 2 sets of dumbbells).

      d) Choose Intervals over slow cardio

      The latest research shows more weight loss when people use
      intervals, and intervals take half as long to do.

      e) Limit the use of isolation exercises

      Pick multi-muscle exercises, such as squats, pulls, pushes, and
      rows. If you have time, you can squeeze in some dropsets for arms
      and shoulders if you want. However, if you only have 3 sessions of
      45 minutes per week, isolation exercises must be the first to go.

      In addition, don't spend more than 10 minutes per week on direct ab
      training. It's not efficient and won't give you rock hard abs
      alone.

      PS - Don't know where to start?

      If you are a beginner, start by reading Dr. Mohr's nutrition
      guidelines...eating properly will be the biggest factor in your
      early success.

      Beginners should also start with the Introductory TT workouts to
      prepare their muscles for the upcoming intense training.

      For others, it's best to start with the Intermediate Level TT
      workouts. If those aren't enough of a challenge, you can move onto
      the Original TT workout and follow the 16-week advanced program
      right through.

      If at any time you need a break, try the TT Bodyweight 4-week plan.

      And then finish off with the TT Fusion Fat Loss program followed by
      the 30-day Maximum Fat Loss program to cap off a full 24 weeks of
      Advanced TT fat loss workouts.

      After that, choose between the TT for Women or TT for Muscle
      programs to help put the finishing touches on your physique. All of
      these are included as bonuses with Turbulence Training.

  3. Love sandbag workout! The ever-shifting shape of a sandbag makes it nearly impossible for you to settle into a lifting groove like you do with free weights or machines. So every workout is unique and challenging. And besides, wouldn't you rather sandbag it outside in your backyard than be stuck inside the gym all summer?
