Bummer Peak Climb/Primal Fitness
A fun hike up Bummer Peak today at Lake Sonoma. I incorporated some moves that a "Primal Man" might make on his daily search for food. This concept/life style explained at www.marksdailyapple.com.

Here is the workout...
A 4 mile round trip brisk hike on trails to the top of Bummer Peak (primal man on an outing to gather food - he would move fast because it was raining, cold and breezy). 
At intervals on the way up
- 20x squat with reach, standing on rocks in a creek (primal man catching salmon and throwing them on shore)
- 20x walking lunge (primal man crossing a stream on boulders)
- 20x steam engine standing crunch (primal man climbing a short rock wall to escape an aggressive bear)
- 20x lateral lunge with reverse reach (primal man picking wild apples and putting them in a pouch)
- 20x lateral frog squat (primal man cornering a wounded hare) 
Repeat each movement on the hike down

Inner Sandbag Construction

I've used Sandbag Training in the past using a cheap duffle bag filled with home made sandbags. I had filled two large heavy duty plastic bags with 25lbs. of sand in each one. I then duct taped them up to keep the bags from breaking. The problem was the inner bags were too large and stiff from the duct tape.

More coming...

The first homemade sandbag.

Doing 50# Sandbag Turkish Get-ups with the homemade sandbag.

The new outer Sandbag from MuscleDriver USA.


A close up of the material.

Sewing the 5# test bag.

The test bag.

Filling containing bag of sand to put in the inner shell. The zip-loc contains the sand while sewing closed the inner bag. Once inside, the bag will break the first time it is slammed down.

A completed 5# inner bag.

55#'s of inner bags with shell. 35# of 5# bags. 2 - 10# bags.

The filled bag ready for a workout.
