I am a Police Officer, and have been for 30 years, so I need to be on my game at all times, especially now that I am fighting with guys half my age! Been working out for many years mostly with weights. I have been looking for a site EXACTLY like this. Workouts are great and the change I have been looking for. After hammering my joints for years, the abuse was starting to catch up with me. After following your WOD's for the past month, I feel better, have more energy, my cardio has improved and I have lost 5 lbs as a BONUS!! Including showering, my workouts are done in 30 minutes compared to the 60 min plus workouts I was previously doing. Keep up the good work...ever consider an IPAD App !!?? I'd buy it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765483.post-7729121852048570912011-02-02T19:05:52.862-08:002011-02-02T19:05:52.862-08:00Have you ever considered incorporating rebounding ...Have you ever considered incorporating rebounding as a Daily Fitness Solution activity? I began rebounding about 3 years ago to assist me with me weak knee (running causes knee pain for me) and to assist with my poor circulation. But I never expected that it would become more than just something to help me with those two problems - because now I use it for 15-20 minutes everyday and in conjuntion with some weight training basically it keeps me in good shape.Rebounding Enthusiasthttp://www.needak.com/blog-news/Newsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765483.post-65632730417814467322010-05-24T12:00:38.752-07:002010-05-24T12:00:38.752-07:00I've never focused on yoga, so my knowledge it...I've never focused on yoga, so my knowledge it is somewhat limited. Personally I think a few basic positions covering the major planes of motion and/or static strength are a nice complement to a general fitness program.

You can do the TMFS program either way; it depends on the intensity of your full body workouts.<BR/><BR/>Try two-a-days, doing the blog WODs as conditioning work on your full body days. Keep your rest days for rest, for now. That would seem most in line with your goal to gain size.<BR/><BR/>JoelJMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04652348423174268807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765483.post-58171146975237360452008-08-22T12:56:00.000-07:002008-08-22T12:56:00.000-07:00Joel great article!

There are no rules violations that would rile me, but there may be some natural rules that will bite you if violated.) Just as trainees adjust the WODs for time, reps, and intensity, so some have also modified the workouts to include other implements or adjusted them for time, as you have done.<BR/><BR/>I am glad to know that the Fitness Solution is useful to you. Use it insofar as you find it meets your needs, and adjust it as you find necessary and/or helpful.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your kind words.<BR/><BR/>JoelJMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04652348423174268807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30765483.post-88083264417541095522008-04-17T18:02:00.000-07:002008-04-17T18:02:00.000-07:00Hi Joel:I love the workouts here.

I couldn't get into the Shovelglove---didn't feel like I was hitting legs and chest enough---so I continued doing the workouts here.<BR/><BR/>However, I did find the 14 minute rule a good psychological ploy to keep me from ever skipping a workout.
