Circuit Training
I guess that's what they call it these days, and this would be my number one health related activity. This routine started about fifteen years ago, and although I did workout onward off and on as a teenager, my methods were vastly more crude in comparison to what I'm doing now.
The gist of this is dividing the body up into sections, areas, and targets, with each target having numerous exercises associated with it. The "section" is either upper or lower body, each has various areas, each area having specific targets with specific exercises, e.g. U1 would be upper body area 1 with targets consisting of chest, back, and shoulders.
I'm more focused on higher reps using moderate weight with no rest between sets. The routine progresses in a circular fashion and there are literally a hundred different exercises I do - no stone is left unturned.
It really is insanity putting pen to paper on this. I use a type of shorthand for tracking my activity that consists of small squares with each quarter of the square containing a unique piece of information. I write 8 squares to a line with each page consisting of about 10 lines.
Writing about it is crazy though. It's just nuts.
