Jeep Presses

[Lord_Suston]

Yesterday I woke up around 7pm after working a long night and thought shit I have to go sprint and do squats. So as I got ready to go downstairs my roommate comes out of his room and asks for me to spot him doing legs I said sure. But then I said why don't we sprint first, so we agreed. But on the way there we pull over to big parking lot and said fuck sprints lets just sprint with his Jeep. So I figured sure why not.... Basically it came down to 2500lb in neutral sprinting for 70 yards a pop, 2 up a slight incline and 1 down an incline + 210yard of us running together, and to boot 4 wind sprints without weight. Needless to say I was spent my legs started to burn after maybe 5-10 sec and each run took about 40seconds. Some fucked up shit huh, calling them jeep presses and gonna do them once a month, just something new to break the old routine....

pushing/pulling cars is a great form of variation and way to build up all your stabilization muscles and legs. I wish I could do it more often.

gone in 60 seconds...

gone in 60 seconds...

maybe my legs, but definitely not the car
it is funny how many people thought the jeep was broken and stopped to help. All my roomate said was training for strongman, and all of a sudden it was ok, really weird to have a small audience of people cheering.....

Heh, you and he are crazy son of a bitches, Suston.

GREAT exercise - abs and lower back especially

 

[Lord_Suston]

thanks Greak, Legion, Vortexx, and Corn...

Really feel it in the calves and the quads, buy my back feels great I thought it would ache but i guess all those deads I am doing are helping out. I recommend this for anyone who want a quick workout that is a break from their routine....

Thats sounds awesome How do you keep the jeep from veering to one side? Id like to try it ThanX

 

[Exodus]

well you have 1 of 2 options..............

a) have a friend sit in it..........preferably a partner and then you can switch for sets.

b) get in a big empty parking lot and push, not much danger of hitting something

i would go with a........... as in need a partner, even just a girlfriend, someone to steer and more importantly, break. becasue if not, you will have to run around the front of the vehicle and stop it your self.

Hammer-
It is a bold statement, no disrespect intended bros... The car was like an '82 or '83. Too bad back then I never thought of pushing cars around for fun! I remember taking out a neighbors mailbox with it (it was on a 4x4 post) and it did not even dent the beast not one bit. Trust me, I was familiar with the Delta 88, my aunt had one, though I think hers was an 84 or something... (Between you and me, I liked the styling lines of of the 88 much better)

Here is some pics for ya of a 98:
