Reps?

Hey guys, I was just wondering which was more benefical doing more reps at one time, or spreading it out through the day?

ex. more at one time- 300 situps, 200 pushups

ex. more spaced out - 150 of each at 10:00, 1:00, 3:00, 5:00

 

spaced out in those conditions

 

Well after much thought i have come up with a workout that i'm gonna try for the first time tomorrow. Please let me know if you have any improvements or criticism for it.

5:30am - morning jog 2.5 -3 miles

6:00am - 250 sit-ups, 150 push-ups, 20 pull-ups, and 40 dips.

10:00am - 150 sit-ups, 100 push-ups, 10 pull-ups, and 20 dips.

1:30pm - Bagwork, some shadowboxing, 100 sit-ups, 50 push-ups, 10 pull-ups, and 20 dips.

4:00pm - 150 sit-ups, 100 push-ups, 10 pull-ups, and 20 dips

6:00pm - 150 sit-ups, 100 push-ups, 10 pull-ups, and 20 dips

7:00pm - swim

P.S. do you think all the repeats of sit-ups, push-ups are overkill?

 

pretty sick workout if you can stick with it and not be over trained

 

man that would be great if u can do that. i don't really think it will be an overkill if u can handle it. personally, i would definitely ASSASINATE me, but's that's me. it will build endurance, that's one thing for sure. good luck w/ whatever results u r looking forward to

 

thats good
make sure you eat something before each workout tho

 

Thanks for the advice guys, i'm going to do this workout 5 days a week and use the weekends to recover. Also does it help if you cut the numbers and do them in three circuits or keep it at 1 circuit with the full amount?

 

do you mean say if you did 150 of each do 50 reps then move to the next then 50 reps on that like do that 3 times

 

I dunno if you realy need so much push ups?

 

yep, thats exactly what i meant

EX: 50-pushups then move directly to 75-situps, 10-pullups, 20-dips
and do that 3 times. Instead of doing them 1 exercise at a time for the the whole amount.

 

dont think there will be a big difference either way

 

but you may aswel try both an see which works better 4 u

 

Nice workout :good

I think you've got a better chance of maintaining constant intensity if you break the sets up like you've described above.

 

Good work out.
I used to do mega sets of situps, chinups and dips myself.
However --- not on days when I was training at the boxing gym.

 

bodyweight training is the best 4 overall strength
