Take a self defense class
– I strongly suggest this. As law enforcement professionals we
are ALL tough both mentally and physically, but keep in mind that a
good self defense class will make you realize that there are people
out there that are bigger, stronger, faster and with more skill than
you.
Hit a heavy bag
- Do not try to knock the bag off the wall… this can lead to injury
if it is done wrong. Instead, try to hit it lighter and do it for time.
Lap swim
- This type of breathing is a lot different than any other exercise.
The best way to stay on track with any exercise program is to change
these up periodically. Use these workouts as a guide to get yourself
going, but I strongly suggest mixing these up whenever possible. Some
options are:
Dropping the weight and doing more reps
Increase the weight and do fewer reps
Combine workouts
Split workouts
Work multiple body parts
Add aerobics in between sets
Add pushups, pull-ups and sit ups to aerobic workouts
