So while I was on my trip this was my all bodyweight movements assigned by suit in a deck of cards, got this idea from on of the trainers at my local cf box

Jokers were run a mile, if you cant run for whatever reason take those out.
Aces=11 reps
Face cards=10 reps
Numbered cards=reps appointed by number on the card

Hearts=Handstand pushups, some days I didnt feel like doing these so I sub’d squats.
Spades=Burpees/ If you can do pullups sub those here
Diamonds=Pushups
Clubs=Situps
(feel free to mix n match all of them, if you got rings do ring dips or muscle ups)
Examples of a workout as many cards in (insert time here)
Or pull 3 to 5 cards and do anywhere from 5-10 rounds for time.

I did this just to mix it up instead of doing the same thing everyday.

Hope this helps some ppl cheers!

Hi Zooko,

I created a spreadsheet for you to list 10 random exercises and repetitions, using the probabilities for a deck of cards. My version basically draws a card, puts the card back in, and shuffles, before drawing another card (ie. “samples with replacement”), to keep it more random than sampling without replacement.

So if you’re traveling, and have a laptop, here you go: http://www.statisticool.com/deckexample.xls (safe for work, family, etc.) Feel free to edit it (exercises, probabilities, number of exercises) as needed.

Sincerely,

Justin

Hey i love that spreadsheet that you made, i’m going to start using it during downtime at the shop, i used to just go do pyramids but this adds a little variety. Thanks.

Cool, I hope it is useful,

Justin

I’m guessing you don’t get back here often, either that or you have the slowest reading speed in human history.

A little of both!
