Bodyweight 500 Workout - What If You're Not Fit Enough For It
John Davenport
December 15, 2007
The Bodyweight 500 Workout is a new and intensive short exercise session created by Craig Ballantyne. It basically involves doing 500 repetitions of various exercises in which you work every muscle group in your body against nothing more than your body weight.
The Bodyweight 500 workout is especially good for busy people who don't have a lot of time to exercise but still want to lose weight and burn fat quickly. The only problem is that this workout is very intensive and isn't recommended for people with a low level of fitness (it's pretty advanced). Craig Ballantyne has a preparatory exercise sessions called the 100 Bodyweight workout, which is really a miniature version of the the Bodyweight 500.
The bodyweight 100 workout consists of 100 reps spread out like this:
20 Prisoner Squats
20 Pushups
10 Jumps
10 Inverted Rows
20 Forward Lunges (10 reps per side)
15 Close-grip Pushups
5 Chin-ups or Inverted Rows
Again, you need to do these 100 reps without any pause. This session still works all the major muscle groups in your body but at a much lesser intensity. Do this exercise session 2-3 times a week for 3 weeks and your body will be ready to handle the intensity of the Bodyweight 500 workout. I suggest that you also spend some time doing interval cardio training during those 3 weeks, because doing the 500 reps of the original workout also strains the heart and lungs, so you need to make sure they're at tip top shape.
