Rest Day!
Please be aware that at least every 5-6 weeks of training on the Z-Fit schedule (3 days on, 1 day off) you should take off about a week from any strenuous conditioning. Your body needs the time to heal and rest. Don’t become a couch potato or eat fast food for a week, but simply don’t do any metabolic conditioning/hypertrophic strength building. Play some sports for fun, take the dog for a walk, but nothing too crazy.
I know this might sound crazy, but you will not lose any strength or conditioning, and you’ll be able to come back harder and stronger after your body has completely healed.

Today is a rest day! Have some fun, catch some sun!
If you want, research and practice some quadrupedal movements. There are many basic-advanced techniques that have various advantages and positive practical usage. THESE are a great set of BJJ ground control techniques that are a good work out and practice coordination as well. I like to drill them sometimes in class.
Peace!

What is functional fitness? We think it is the ability to perform any given task, at anytime, quickly and efficiently. Functional fitness and situational awareness are necessary skills that are lacking in today's society. ZombieFit hopes to change that.
What if you woke up tomorrow to find your city overridden with zombies, would you survive? This may seem childish, but by preparing for the impossible, you'll be ready for the improbable.
The keys to surviving Z-day are simple: Be able to lift and throw heavy things, run fast and for long distances, and be able to navigate obstacles and urban environments in an efficient manner. By following the ZombieFit WODs (workout of the day) and practicing parkour, you will achieve increased fitness through the performance of functional movements at high intensity and find within yourself the internal discipline and mental fortitude necessary to become a traceur.
Our goal is to be instructive in functional fitness and the parkour ideology. We sincerely hope you learn something from this site. Whether you need zombies to motivate you, or just want a good workout/place to learn parkour, we'll be able to help.You can also subscribe by email by filling the field below:
