Tara is amongst the most inspirational people I have seen so far on the internet, when it comes to training.

She and her mentor Rocannon MacGregor are always worth checking out.

It’s very impressive what she is doing. The body is capable of amazing things. She could make even more gains if she added isometric training. Isometric training is one of the fastest and safest ways to add strength.

Aren’t the ‘alternative’ pushups excercises for excercises sake?

Fantastic video, I’ve seen a few of Tara’s videos on YouTube before, but I just had a first look at her website: had a go at those ‘mountain climbers’ – I did Tabata versions, it was…fun!

I’ve always gone for having a rest day between workouts, but everything was getting too regimented anyway, so I ‘decided’ to mix things up. I’m just waiting for my new sledge hammer to arrive before I start whacking a truck tire, not to mention throwing it (the hammer), and then I’m going to be a bit more random with mostly bodyweight: burpees, pull-ups, push-ups, squats, wall squats, lunges and hopefully (I need my right hamstring to recover!) back to my favourite hill sprints. But I have also ‘decided’ (that word again) to spend ten consecutive minutes of everyday doing burpees, regardless of anything else I might do…it only works out to 60 hours of burpees each year, easy!! I started today, and even if I probably spent half the time staring at the ground trying to convince myself to go on, I kept going! I was planning on keeping count and seeing my progress (or lack of), but the joy of burpees is things like counting become far too complicated. So, I have committed myself to this publicly, and am now wondering if I should hit ‘Submit Comment’.

Thanks for the inspiration Ross!

Thanks for the motivation, I am just getting started in physical activity and I hope some day as well to train my mind and my body further than humanly possible.
I will definitely look at your site more often, keep up the good work!

I also workout every day. I do not need that day of rest everyone is talking about in between 2 workouts. And no plan as wel.
