The 300 Workout
Yes, most of you have seen the movie '300' and know the actors and stunt-doubles in the movie are all pretty jacked, and well in shape. There has been a workout floating around for a long time that explains how they got into shape, and essentially it is a '300 repitition' workout that you are to do 2-3 times a week; however, the actors/stunt-men apparently did not reach the 300 plateau until a few weeks after working out with this regimine before hitting this level, which is fine. But it is an excellent goal to shoot for, and something to keep your eye on the goal with.
I myself have been contemplating on what route to take, and this workout is looking more promising the more videos and articles I have read about it, which is why I am now passing it onto you guys. I plan to start this workout regimine Tues, Dec. 2nd and continue onwards for roughly 8-10 weeks.
The workout regimine looks like this:
- 25 pull-ups
- 50 deadlifts at 135 pounds
- 50 push-ups
- 50 box jumps with a 24-inch box
- 50 "floor wipers" (a core and shoulders exercise at 135 pounds)
- 50 "clean and press" at 36 pounds (a weight-lifting exercise)
- 25 more pull-ups -- for a total of 300 reps
There is
NO rest in between workouts. I will be doing this workout 2 to 3 times a week. I am going to push forward with it, eating correctly every day including protein supplements.

Here is an example from the
300 DVD.
However, these first two weeks I am going to do a less impactful type of workout, like shown in this video.
