Georges St-Pierre’s RUSHFIT Review: The Fight Conditioning Workout

If you have read my other reviews, you already know how much I love the Rushfit program.  This workout is no different; it’s great!  This training session is unique in the Rushfit program because it revolves around MMA related techniques.  This workout has you practicing footwork, punches, kicks, sprawls, takedowns, etc.  It’s a nice break from the other types of workouts which are more traditional exercises like push ups and squats.  Not only will you be getting into shape, but you will be developing real martial art skills at the same time.  You can’t beat that!

Georges St-Pierre’s RUSHFIT Review: Abdominal Strength & Core Conditioning

Alright guys, if you read my last review you know how much I love this program and how hard it is.  Well things do not get any easier with the abdominal strength and core conditioning workout.  The great thing about this particular workout is that it isn’t exactly what you think it is.  This isn’t a workout that is just a bunch of crunches and traditional abdominal exercises.  It’s fast pace and is made up of exercises that not only build the core but balance and athletic ability as well.

GSP’s workout series never gets boring because your schedule is different every week.  It constantly changes, mixing up the workouts in different ways to focus on different aspects of fitness and athletic performance.  Many of the exercises on this DVD will probably be ones you have never even seen before.  Even the ones you have seen will be a variation that is a little different and more challenging.  If you want a fast pace and challenging workout that will take you to new levels, I highly recommend picking this DVD up (I even more highly recommend buying the entire set).

Georges St-Pierre RUSHFIT Review: Explosive Power Training

Explosive Power Training is one of the more interesting workouts from the Rushfit series.  This workout has a lot of leaping, jumping, and full body explosive movements.  It’s not about doing as many reps as some of the other workouts, but everything you do is quick, powerful, heavy and with maximum effort.  In martial arts, this will allow you to explode into your takedowns, land harder punches, move out of danger more quickly.  But explosive power translates into any sport, it’s a must have.

Some may think this workout is too intense for the average joe, but as always, if you can’t keep up with the video, just do as much as you can.  Being faster and more explosive is good for anyone.  If you can do this it will make daily chores around the house seem like nothing.  Not to mention it’s going to help you blast away the fat.  Virtually all of the workouts from the Rushfit series have a different focus and hit your body in a different way.  You will be very well rounded in your fitness and it’s hard to go wrong with that.

Georges St-Pierre RUSHFIT Review: Strength & Endurance

Welcome to my first review for GSP’s Rushfit.  His program is made up of six DVDs (7 workouts) and I will be reviewing each one since it’s possible to buy them individually (though I recommend buying the entire boxed set).  The first DVD in the series is the Strength and Endurance workout and let me tell you, it’s a killer!  One of the great things about this entire program is that it requires almost no equipment.  All you need are the videos and a few pairs of dumbbells (ranging from 3lbs to 30lbs depending on how strong you are).  You may think from hearing that, that it doesn’t sound like it is very difficult, you are wrong!

The strength and endurance workout is made up of full body exercises and focuses on your core, legs, back and chest.  These workouts are not just going to build some show muscles, they will build muscle, burn fat, build coordination, balance and flexibility.  These are functional exercises that are designed to turn you into a better athlete.  I have been working out for twenty years and I have to say this is my most favorite program.

Another great thing about this workout is that it’s not just the same old exercises you have done a million times before.  While it does use push-ups and squats, there are many variations on everything and lots of exercises you have probably never even seen before.  If you are looking to be a much better athlete and looking to improve your fitness in every way while also mixing up your workouts and doing something new, GSP’s Rushfit is the program for you.  The strength and endurance workout will take you to new levels for both.  Believe me, I was very sore the next day and that was a good feeling!
