Bo Staff Spinning Exercise Routine (another look at my exercise routine in the morning)

In my quest to loose weight without giving up beer, I am working on a morning exercise routine that I enjoy enough to do everyday and that will give me a good workout as well. This morning was really hot and muggy and I was breathing in buckets of gnats as well.

Hi eteune, In the routine, why do you place your non-active arm/hand on your shoulder?.

[eteune]

@Sick3ninVend3tta ah good question. I started with it lower, but putting it up by my shoulder not only took it 'out of the way' but readied it for taking the staff if switching hands, blocking if the staff got out of control (near my head), or other attack or defense moves I wished to incorporate

1000 punch workout. My wrists hurt after about 100 daily punches. I spent last winter living 100' from a Maine beach, and exercised in the sand every morning. Found that doing the yoga exercise where you stand on one foot and make a "T" (with your body, legs and arms horizontal) strengthened the feet and ankle so much that I ran faster and longer,and had greater foot speed.

@lorrin1950 cool, yeah, I usually only do about 500 punches for exercise, but just wanted to try 1000

Impressive movements. I also bought a six foot pole at Lowe's and used that until my wife needed some new coat hangar rods in the closet.

I lost 23 pounds since January using an early morning routine using Tai Chi and Yoga for a warm up, and then using the bo against a BOB striking target. For leg strength and agility I mix in some soccer ball dribbling, which helps work up a sweat.

I got some really good ideas watching you and plan on watching your other video's.

Thanks.

Hi eteune, Do you believe the Bo staff to be a good tool for developing core/internal strength?.
