How good is the 300 workout?

Should you ever had the opportunity to begin to see the movie 300, you were probably surprised about the type of sculpted bodies the actors who literally Greek warriors displayed. At first I believed it was some type of special effects trick, but the truth is they did a unique routine called the 300 workout. This workout is difficult for ordinary people to do because it requires a lot of equipment which most gyms don't have.

So a famous fitness expert called Craig Ballantyne chose to create a similar workout called the Bodyweight 500 workout which doesn't require any weights or equipment but is still intensive enough to produce fast fat burning and muscle sculpting results.

Here is what the 300 Workout workout includes:

  • 50 Prisoner Squats

  • 50 Pushups

  • 25 Jumps

  • 25 Stability Ball Leg Curls

  • 50 Stability Ball Jackknifes

  • 50 Step-ups (25 reps per side)

  • 25 Pull-ups (NO substitutions)

  • 50 Forward Lunges (25 reps per side)

  • 50 Close-grip Pushups

  • 50 Inverted Rows

  • 50 Squats

  • 25 Chin-ups (NO substitutions)
In total you receive 500 repetitions of these exercises which prevent your bodyweight and zilch more. This is exactly why they call it the Bodyweight 500 workout. You have to perform these 500 reps one following the other without pausing. Believe me, it is extremely intensive. Through the end of this session you'll be huffing and puffing and sweating profusely. But you may have also burned a lot of calories, spiked your heartbeat, and worked nearly every muscle in your body. And it takes a ridiculously short time for you to do it.

Only one thing you need to know: this workout session is intensive, so don't do it unless you're already fit. But if you're, then get it done. When you finish it, the feeling rocks !.
