Hello !
It is that time of year again ! It is the holiday season ! Because of this I have made a workout that does not take to long so that you can train and enjoy the holiday !
I have decided to create a workout this year that does require a pull up bar and a heavy dumbell. This is a workout that focuses on the entire body and does heavily rely on a strong core. If you do not have this equipment or do not want to do this workout for another reason, I have linked previous years workouts below !
The 2017 holliday season home workout:
Dumbell snatches – 8-15 reps for 6 sets – Take 30 – 90 seconds rest in between sets
Pull ups – As many reps as possible for 6 sets – Take 60 – 120 seconds rest in between sets
V-ups with a dumbell in your hands – 20 reps for 6 sets – Take 30 – 90 seconds rest in between sets
Push ups – 10 reps – Straight into mountian climbers – 10 reps – Then back to push ups and so on. As many as you can do
Tips for the workout
- Since we are using a heavy dumbell I suggest using this for the pull ups aswell, put the dumbell in between your feet and do weighted pull ups.
- If you have weights to use on your feet as well as hands while you are doing v-ups it would make it even better.

2014: A bit more advanced and will for most people take a bit more time than the 2013 workout. Chose this one if you like to do an intense routine which challenges your athleticism http://muscularstrength.com/forums.php?pageAction=POSTS&subForumID=49&threadID=2050&searchText=stay+in+shape

2016: Is a little different than the others, because this one focuses more on fat burning, cardio and intensity ! If you would rather do something that focuses on maintaining muscle and getting a good burn / pump, please check out the other threads ! Chose this one if you want an intense workout that focuses on cardio and explosivity.

2017 is a workout that focuses on the snatch movement aswell as the pull ups. In addition it has ab exercises, needless to say, this will build a strong core ! Chose this one if you want a strong core workout.
Merry christmas and happy new years !
