GOOD MORNING!
As most of you know, the new Pokemon Go game has gotten many people out walking miles (or km) beyond what they had done before on a daily basis. That's great, but more can still be done. I have developed a PokeGo Workout you can do in your neighborhood that can and will push many to your limits. I have been in the US Army for 7 1/2 years and this was one of the hardest things I think I have ever done to myself. SO LET'S GET DOWN TO BUSINESS (Huns not included)!!!!!
The goal - hatch an egg, any egg. Beginners might want to just pick a 2km egg, because this will suck.
The rules -
1. Pick a route and jog/run it. No need to speed through it because, if you're fast, it'll think you're on a bike and won't count your steps. I went over a mile before I figured this out. (I have heard that they fixed this in the last update. Maybe my connection was bad)
2. If you encounter a Pokemon that can't fly (rats, bugs, dinosaur-rabbits, wtfe), catch it, then do 10 pushups. And you must do MUST do it even if it runs away and you can't get it.
3. If you encounter anything that flies or can fly, do 10 burpees. Right there on the spot, no saving up for later. DO IT. You think you hated zubats before? Guess again, buddy.
4. Anything that swims earns you 20 squats. Those of you who live by rivers or the beach are going to hate your life.
5. At the end of it all, do 2 pullups at your place for everything you caught during the exercise.
6. Make sure to stretch. It's important since you're GOING TO DO IT ALL AGAIN TOMORROW!!!!!
7. Add your own rules as you see fit, or that would make it more challenging for you and your goals. Add a backpack, loaded ruck, or a friggin kettlebell tied to your junk for all I care. You'll earn that steak and egg breakfast.
If you want to focus on running distance, then pick that 10km egg and cut the reps for the exercises in half or tally everything you caught at the end. It'll hurt, but you'll be the best there ever was...
You want to get fit AF playing PoGo? That's how you do it.
